Waffle House reviews

Drama Drama Drama; conflicting management styles; selective enforcement of policies and rules; the manager wants it one way, district another, vp another, and then there is the "official waffle house" way; slow to modernize and adapt leading to theft, labor, and product loss; they also get away with not having dishwashers and cleaning staff by calling their servers salespersons instead, so on top of traditional sidework they are responsible for cleaning all dishes, cleaning windows inside and out, cleaning bathrooms, cleaning the ceiling tiles, floors, etc

The leaders of the company say one thing but do another. Very little family time You will get blamed for everything & rarely told your work is very self-sufficient, Your restaurant will still be dirty after you cleaned it because the buildings are 30+yrs old and falling apart. 15-18hr days are not uncommon; 70+ hour weeks are normal. Be prepared for 24-36hr days also when someone calls out on 3rd and you are still expected to show up in the a.m. Company has a no alcohol policy; Since you will never see your friends you can also forget about having a beer with your team. You will work all holidays & possibly valentines day (morning & evenings on holidays). Once you become a division manager no one cares about you You will get sales & staffing 3 times a day. This will interrupt your family plans & time Friday and Saturday night you have to go back into work and possibly every night if you have a tough unit. No sick pay They always talk about how great they are compared to everyone else but for some reason they can't seem to hire enough management to staff the stores...in other words it must not be so great after all
