Pros

It was a pleasure to work with great co-workers and management. They have high standards and expect everyone to do their part. Have in depth knowledge of every item on the menu and at least a basic understanding about some wines. Attention to detail is a must.

Cons

The only bad thing is having to work lunches. A lot of times that seems like a waste of time. Usually only one team would actually make money.

Pros

First, the corporate people who came into the restaurant quite regularly were always wonderful. Also, the waistaff and kitchen staff were for the most part, great to interact with.

Cons

Unfortunately, the good stops there. The restaurant has a very toxic environment. This was created via certain members of management openly yelling at employees during staff meetings and cursing at employees if they did something wrong. I was a witness to this behavior on multiple occasions. In fact, a manager cursed at me for (allegedly) putting clean napkins on a dirty table. In fact, the customer put his dirty plates on a clean table. When I pointed this out, there was no apology whatsoever. In fact, so many people were so unhappy there, the turnover was very high. In another instance, another manager started cursing at us in a staff meeting simply because some servers accidentally asked the wrong kitchen staff member for an item for a guest. This is just a short list of the many things upper management did to create a toxic work culture.
