Pros

The pro's of working for Waffle House are they put an emphasis on the care of people first through servant leadership, taking care of their employees, and their families. I have noticed in the people that I work with that they have high expectations and a growth mindset to get better everyday to reach the goal of ensuring that every individual who walks through the doors of a Waffle House has had a good experience or memory. Lastly, I observed the company values a strong work ethic, authenticity, humility, being relational, community, growth, and having a purpose bigger than ourselves. Also! In-house tradition, music has always been a part of the Waffle House experience and I love playing my favorite songs.

Cons

What some may think of as a con, I think of as an asset and a rewarding career; our work ethic. My observations are that everyone I work with, works hard. This includes Servers, Cooks, Managers, District Managers, Division Managers, Area Managers, SVP's, all the way into corporate. I have nothing bad to say about Waffle House so far in my experience.
