Business Outlook

Pros

Working in a professional and positive environment. Great benefits and team leaders. Lateral service is always encouraged and available for those who want it. It really is, overall, an amazing company to work for. Being a hostess is a ton of fun. You are encouraged to engage with guests and you can have some great conversations.

Cons

The only downside is also a perk, long hours. They expect dedication from each and every employee and if you deliver you will always receive appreciation. As a hostess you are always standing so wear comfortable shoes. It is an easy, but stressful position. You have to maintain the happiness of our guests and our coworkers.
