Pros

The company puts a lot of effort into making sure their employees are happy. The general environment is one that's healthy, friendly, and encouraging.

Cons

The company is very traditional and the office is very corporate. As for career building skills, I'm not sure one would find a lot of movement here.

Pros

Working in the bakery at the Cheesecake Factory was an alright part-time job when I was in college. Some of my managers and coworkers were really hard-working, caring, interesting people. It was also very easy to change my schedule, which was a nice perk. Free soup, bread and soda at lunch was nice too.

Cons

There weren't always enough people scheduled to work in the bakery, which made weeknights very stressful - mentally and physically. Bakers received minimum wages, and cashiers made little extra in tips, so there wasn't much of a monetary incentive to offset the aggravating aspects of the job. I planned to work my way up to serving, but noticed that servers with bakery experience were often given low-earning bakery shifts.
