Pros

Great environment. I love meeting new people, interacting with guests and building a strong team. I love the fast paced environment and making great food.

Cons

It can be challenging working 10 hour shifts on your feet on a tile floor. It can be exhausting. There will always be some sort of drama in a restaurant setting. There are no performance based raises but there are production bonuses for grill operators which are based on total shift sales. This can add up quickly. Moving up past 3rd Shift Supervisor can be difficult but if you prove yourself to be a valuable asset, it can be done.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
