Crazy people, nightshift 9pm-7am, managers either stay forever or for a few months

Thanks for the honest review! We're glad the tips and atmosphere made it worthwhile. Our Associates are truly the ones who bring that energy to every shift.
The feedback on management consistency is something we take seriously. Stability in leadership matters, and if that wasn't your experience, we'd encourage you to share more at wafflehouse.com/contact. We're always working to make Waffle House a better place for our Associates at every level.
Thanks for being a part of the team!
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.
