hindsight should be 20/20 - look at what made you so great.

Pros

Amazing staff and some mangers - I have made lifelong friends from the staff and guests. For years it was a truly inspiring place to work with excellent leadership and a common goal. The training program was unequalled in its thoroughness. Never before or since was I trained so well to do my job. I genuinely felt like it was my restaurant.

Cons

No more is empowerment practicied, no more is balance something that is touted and no more is guest satisfaction the #1 goal. Traet your people the way you used to, train your staff, and really empower them to provide what OC used to provide. This has failed so much in the last 5 years.

Management plays favorites occasionally. Have to work late sometimes. The pay is pretty much based on your tips

Pros

The best reason by far is flexibility of the schedule. The location i worked was 144th and center in omaha but i think that same principle is associated with every store. The menu was reasonable both in price, and variety. And then theres the beer tour.....WOW. I learned so much about defferent beers and brewing processes, it blew both my mind and the regular customers i saw many times a week. I enjoyed working here. :)

Cons

as with any tipped position, what you make in tips is what your paycheck is. If you can manage your money well, it will be a good fit tho.
