Pros

Nice hours for 1st and even 3rd shift, regular customers that treat you like family, tips can be good, some good people to work with.

Cons

Not much in the way of moving up, a lot of favoritism and useless co-workers.

Pros

Great stock and profit sharing program. If you love to eat Waffle House they have a good meal program for employees. Training is minimum wage but then you go down to servers pay after training.

Cons

This is not a job for a person with small children. I had to work all holidays and barely got to spend time with my kids. I also worked overnight so I slept the majority of the day. October through January is black time. You cannot take of and if you do not show up you are automatically fired. There is no chance for growth. Unless you have no small children, I would not recommend this company because they do not understand or have any empathy for people and their families.
