Pros

Second and third shift is nice because there is minimal management drama.

Cons

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
