Toxic management undermines a good pay structure

Restaurant general manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay is very good for a restaurant GM

Cons

Area director would constantly lie about policy Area director would create separate dead lines from the rest of the company Area director would constantly undermine my authority as a GM in front of my staff The brand preaches love and respect but the Area director had access to my email and saw I sent a grievance letter to HR and she came in and fired me. Stay away. Seriously. Not worth the hostile work environment she will create.

Ugh management

Bartending/server

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Some coworkers were amazing. They made the job better.

Cons

Management all the way up the chain was focused on covering their own butts rather than helping employees. Some really crappy things going on there for a company with a "love" mindset.

Pros

Decent compensation for the industry

Cons

Very mismanaged & leadership decisions don't make sense Only restaurant I've seen where a non-chef owner makes up the menu on her own whim Owner is shady - love bombs new team members under the pretense that they are a "love brand"; everything is "epic"; throws money at problems without fixing the real issues; her way or the highway (nobody in leadership or corporate will tell her "no" because she'll throw a fit)
