      Pros

      Money....besides that, nothing. The regulars are nice and I did enjoy the staff I worked with.

      Cons

      They still from there employees. They change your schedule without telling anyone. They make up excuses and lies to turn employees on one another. Managment often calls you off from your shift minutes before it starts by a tex from other employees. You get ridiculed constantly for petty things such as the amount of ice that is in a glass or the smile on your face not being as geniune as it could when you have 100's of customers to serve.

      1.) Tips. 2.) Food is good. 3.) Free drinks during your shift.

      Cons

      1.) Terrible managers that didn't seem to care about guiding you. 2.) Paying out tips to a grumpy bar-tender. 3.) Server pay unless it's a higher-end establishment.
