Pros

Like any job, there is opportunity to meet some nice people to chat with. The tips were pretty good, turning a $18 base pay day into a $150 day. I didn't find the money good enough though to outweigh the cons. Training is a good and thorough 5 shifts and you get free meals every time. They also provide a big breakfast for everyone to pick off of and provide free coffees and things to people who perform well (high revenue, good customer reviews, etc.) Really good about gender and sexual orientation inclusion.

Cons

At this location, some of the employees were legitimately bullies. Really stressful environment and I was physically threatened once in my brief time there. Really unkind and competitive people (some, not all) who just seem angry all the time. The parking options are kind of a mess in New Orleans in busy downtown areas but that's doable if the rest of this job wasn't crazy. The shifts are 8-10 hours (including opening and closing), and there's no shorter option. It's physically tiring and there are no breaks and you will get yelled at if you stop to drink or eat when someone thinks you shouldn't. They didn't tell me this structure in my interview and I didn't see it online in my research either.

Pros

You're home with your family every night. There's not a lot of sidework most days. You usually get a free meal once a day.

Cons

They keep your credit card tips to put on your paycheck. You're not going to make much unless its May to August. It's a tourist town. Half the staff is nice and half are drama and catty.
