Pros

The best reason was to get experience being a waitress, I just turned 18 at the time.

Cons

Not the cleanest place, lots of truckers came in and tipped terribly especially when it was the "all you can eat" time of the day, they were quite gross. Also right away they had me working night shift and It was hard work on me and its not the type of shift I want to be taking at my age.

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.
