Pros

Good salary Other restaurants will go out of their way to help you when you need it Customers are nice for the most part

Cons

Longggggg hours. Most weeks between 60-70 hours They won’t let you hire your own managers. They recruit and hire all of them which is a bad thing. They hire the dumbest people and you as a GM are stuck with what they give you. Personally my restaurant has been running with only a couple of managers which puts all the stress on me as a GM. Can’t focus doing my own job because I’m doing the job of 3 other managers Upper level management doesn’t care about your needs as a restaurant. They only want more sales.

Pros

It was an amazing place at one time

Cons

Restaurant food quality has dropped with no movement by senior leadership to improve. Department leaders are stagnant and it's impossible to introduce new leadership and new mentality. Walls are being put up by senior leadership creating lack of management promotions within or recognition of leaders with no titles making great impacts. Hiring is being controlled with a complete disregard for diversity, it's becoming too white washed. Hiring managers are being rewarded to hiring unqualified but cheaper candidates.
