Good work life balance - Server/Waiter Saltgrass Steakhouse Employee Review

Excellent place to learn how to be efficient and quick.

Not very flexible with schedule.

Busy most days of the week. Structured and Organzied. Teammates are older than young 20's and therefore professional. Expo/ "Shelfer" on busy nights. Used to be $$$ after shift now on Branch card the day after. The menu is easy enough. Teammates do (and have to) help each other out.

High Rate of Server Turn Around. Long 1st spiel. Tray Service, Heavy mugs. I don't carry more than 10 drinks cause of weight. Very Hot Trays. You have to take two items with a tray. Ranking system, which means its competitive/a grind to reach a higher rank to ensure more tables. Micromanaging at every turn. 5pm and 5:30pm in times suck and you may be cut after two rotations. 2 closers so they get the last hour of tables and most money. They control your schedule, and you can't ask for a change until much later if they are willing, 1 week off a year.
