So glad I left

Pros

- family meal once a week is only $5 - good if you just want to be a server

Cons

- Pooled house, bartenders do more work in terms of sitework, prep, making every single thing, doing all the glassware, etc and are not fairly compensated but good for servers - Management will always choose the customer over the employee, very customer oriented -> good for customers, bad for employees - Corporate promotes within their own family, people with no experience making for very poorly ran social media pages, and changes from people with very little experience - Prices are very unreasonable for example charging over $5 for fountain club soda and $16 for 6 small pigs in a blanket. Prices are the same for all the restaurants in terms of cocktails and soda no matter the environment (upscale or tavern) - Very corporate and suggestions will not be heard to listened to in a way they will actually consider the change - Will get written up for being 1 minute late no matter the circumstance - The company moves up the people who can't think for themselves and will listen to and do everything they say (no matter what) - Family meal was bland and most of the time things the staff would not enjoy eating, that could not fill you up for a full shift

Cult like management. Horrible people.

Pros

Good money, friendly staff, nothing else

Cons

cult like management, there are favorites, tip pool gets constantly taken advantage of, they were not paying us the correct amount for months, sections aren’t even for servers even though it’s a tip pool, you pay for ‘family meal’ but they feed you the scraps from what they can’t sell to the customers, they put the customers needs over their employees and then expect the employees to take the best care of the customers.
