Supportive coworkers but work-life balance needs improvement - Anonymous employee Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen Employee Review

Absolutely one of the best managed places I have ever worked in my entire life m

Server start with a very small section and I have to work their way up. It can be frustrating at first but is very rewarding in the end

Very structured. Professional company, clear goals and good communication.

No room for growth. GM positions rarely open and the company isn't expanding. There is a program where you can become an "AGM" and qualify for better pay however the goals to achieve this don't seem realistic. We are told we can't give reviews to employees over a certain level "No one should be getting higher than a 3.5 on reviews, that's not realistic" Then told we need to achieve a 3.8 on OUR review to move forward. Clearly not going to happen. The schedule is brutal. We keep losing management due to long hours / late hours and weekends always working. They won't hire managers no matter how qualified without a college degree. So we get managers who are very unqualified with degrees that aren't relevant, while we have people who have experience and would be a great fit that we can't hire.
