      Pros

      Since it is a restaurant, your Applebuddies (co-workers) are usually all very charismatic and outgoing, which makes for a great environment. You get to meet new people each day and best of all you will be come nicer from having this job! When you are payed to be nice to people, it becomes a habit.

      Cons

      Getting a job at Applebee's can be difficult, if you have connections use them. Also, it is not the best restaurant for getting a discount on the food, unless you are a cook you pay close to full price for each item.

      Pros

      -Flexible schedules -Pay was decent at times

      Cons

      -Managers played favoritism -Which leads to people don't deserve to move up faster than people who do deserve it -Couldn't leave until the manager says so -No breaks if it's really busy, even if you've been on your feet for 6+ hours -Co-workers stole from each other -Managers were degrading sometimes under pressure -Did server's job for them (cleaning tables, running food, rolling silverware, etc)
