Pros

It is a cashless music and sports venue so you don't have to worry about keeping up with counting money in or out. The hours are flexible because of the music and sports events. You get paid a few dollars higher in base pay because its more corporate than a regular bar. Advancement to other positions is possible after a few seasons.

Cons

They control the amount of money you make by making it difficult to get tipped outside of credit cards which at the end isn't even good as a bartender when you can't get all your tips or have to deny people from tipping you. Again, its cashless but if a customer wanted to tip you in cash you could get written up or fired for making them change from your pocket and you can't have a tip jar. And EVEN THOUGH its cashless if someone wants to send you a tip to digital wallets like cash app or venmo you can't give them your info or you could be fired.

Pros

The atmosphere, all upper management is amazing and it’s a company you can grow in and love it while you do it! I’d work here a million times over

Cons

The only con I could put about this job is that unfortunately it’s hard to find people who want to work so it makes everything a little harder for everyone else.

Pros

Customers are typically great! Timberwolves games and concerts can be fun events to work. Shifts are typically 4-5 hours of fast-paced, but manageable. Co-workers can be nice.

Cons

At the Target Center location, you will be misled when you are hired! You will be hired as a bartender, but will never actually work as a bartender. Union and seniority make it difficult to get a regular schedule - you will be cut half the time. When you do actually get a shift, you will be forced to work as a concession stand worker, serving pizza, hot dogs, candy, popcorn, and a lot of little kids! I've worked there for a year and rarely worked behind a bar. Management is extremely unorganized, unprofessional, and there is zero communication or support. If you run into a problem during your shift, you're on your own. The "scheduling coordinator" with zero bartending experience shows favoritism, and the work assignments are unfair. If you speak up, HR and management retaliate. Toxic culture! If you need a sporadic, part-time job where you can make occasional decent money, it's an okay gig. If you can maintain a positive attitude (despite all the negativity), enjoy the customers and events, and provide good service, you can sometimes make good money.
