Pros

They have a strong base of regulars so you get familiar with your customers. No tip share, and its a fun work environment. Never a dull moment. I work there from 2006-2024. It is my Waffle Home.

Cons

Not all Waffle Houses are Corporate and I worked at a franchise. So none of the corporate benefits. High turnover rate.
