      Pros

      I can't think of any Pros from working here. Maybe that I learned I never want to eat here again.

      Cons

      You are treated poorly by management, you have no support system, and the money is awful.

      Pros

      Easy for causal dining for experience manager. Closed on major Holidays. Quality of life good. Stores are low volume sales. Good company for a inexperienced manager.

      Cons

      Coupon driven company. Quality of food is in relation to their menu price point. Difficult to maintain BOH staffing due to pay scale.

      The managers treat you terribly. Frequently, when you are extremely busy you get yelled at by senior managers.

      Pros

      Wages are some of the higher in town, fellow co-workers are pretty good people.

      Cons

      Managers are very disrespectful, don't acknowledge the fact that you and your fellow line cooks work hard. Managers tend to favor servers, so I do suggest if you decide to work at Applebee's in Hays. Work as a server or even manager.
