Pros

-Customers were decent, but that's always a coin-flip. -Okay benefits if you stay -Tips (only evening/night shifts)

Cons

-Used to get free food on shift, but now you have to work full-time or at least 6 hours. Food must be eaten in store and you cannot take it home. Additionally, you have to pay, but at least a 50% discount. -Micromanagement is key here. You will get bossed around, not only by your manager, but by people who think they have "seniority." -Managers have favorites and if you are not one they will force you to quit. ------> Favorites got a promotion much faster, like how a person joined 3 weeks again and was already in training to be Kitchen Manager. He was also started at $14.50 without any prior experience. He did the same job as me too and my pay, along with previous experience was only $13.35. -Depends on location, but our crew had smokers and drinkers. Yes, they smoked and drank on shift, morning, night, and afternoon. -I had previous work experience here (~1 year) and was promised to start at $13.85, but only went from my previous wage of $13.15 to $13.35. Asked management constantly what was going on, but all they said was that they were "working on it." For 3 months ...

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
