      Pros

      I had a lot of fun working for this company! Raises are based on reviews and management was awesome.

      Cons

      Not a very professional environment. Great place for a college kid to work but maybe not so much for someone looking for a career.

      Pros

      Making tons of friends and enjoying work while still in school.. HALF OFF FOOD!

      Cons

      You'll get fat, besides that it is a pretty great environment to work in. Just beware your managers will probably make you cover everyone's shifts that don't show up.

      Pros

      Mostly good staff, but a few bad 'apples'. Ummmm?

      Cons

      Upper Level Mgmt has no idea what they are doing. Ignoring repairs, ignoring company policy, cutting the throats of GM's - watch them leave in mass. Policy of having a 'write-up' on every employee so you can fire them at will is simply Bad Policy. Working Mgrs 80+ hours for a bonus that is ever changing and unattainable is bad policy. Paying GMs 0 dollars more than an Asst Mgr is ridiculous. Every single restaurant job I had was better than being a GM in this Franchise!
