Pros

Always busy if not outright swamped. Food is good and portions are large.

Cons

You only have 2 tables in your section so you depend on getting your tables turned. If a table does not leave you are losing tip money. Two table sections are for fine dining--Cheddars is basically a Denny's with a cuter outfit. The cleaning, keeping the dishes and sides stocked for the expo line, side work and food running is constant, brutal and unrelenting to the point where actually waiting on your tables becomes an afterthought. Management is young. Most of the staff is young. Most days I feel like I am working at a middle school with all the childish antics and drama. Food is cheap = cheap guests = cheap bills = low tips, mostly in the 10% to 15% on average.
