You make alot of tips depending on how good of a server you are and how many shifts you can get. There's open opportunity for promotion and management is easy to get along with.
Cons
Poor quality of coworkers leads to downfall in overall shift engagement; less sales and less tips. Overall work was very demanding and not distributed evenly amongst workers.

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.
