Pros
People Business - you really get to dive into peoples heart and soul in this business. Team Building - If you stay with the company for any amount of time you will become a mastermind at team building & development of others Money - You will make very fair compensation; More than average. We get some "KIDS 22,23,24,25" in the company who make 70-100K a year. I rarely find other companies compensating like this. Paid Vacation - Every level of management gets 3.5 weeks of paid vacation; Except on holidays.
Cons
Long hours - Go ahead and expect to make Waffle House your life; You will eat, sleep, and breath it. Money - Sometimes upper management likes to use Money as your life dependence when for some people that is not even the case. There are days when I just want to go back to the simple life of making unit manager salary and being done at 3PM. Non-attainable goals - As upper level management myself 'division' i get goals that are just not realistic and out of sight. Holidays - Never EVER plan on spending Chirstmas, New Years, 4th of July or ANY Holiday with your family because you will be working no matter who you are.
