Pros

There are absolutely no pros to working here except maybe the free food? If you consider that a pro. I don't.

Cons

This is the worst place to work. While the manager does put out a schedule, you might as well assume that they will never let you leave at your scheduled time. Good luck planning anything around your schedule as you will likely be expected to stay several hours past the end of your shift. Not sure if this is caused by poor planning or being understaffed, but it's horrible. To add insult to injury, the management isn't even nice about asking if you could stay longer to help. They just tell you that you can't leave yet. They don't even give you the respect and decency you deserve as a human being.

Pros

Having a handheld order system that you can take orders on next to the table makes everything go much faster but has a BIG learning curve The culture is good, people are always running your food and it really does feel more like a team than a lot of server jobs Ive worked You can make good money on busy nights and sections are large / they are decently good about cutting too many servers

Cons

Management expects a lot from servers, which is understandable, but there is a lot of pressure on upsell and reviews Tips can be very random depending on day and time of day A lot of the logistics are easier bc of Red Robin policy (using table-side ordering/others running food) but because of this you have much bigger sections
