Good money, mean people.

Pros

The tips were decent and the hours were good. It was nice to work one night and go home with $70-100.

Cons

Most of the employees were selfish and mean. Very few would help out unless told to do so by a manager. Cliques were formed between managers and employees. There was a ton of sidework.

Pros

Co-workers were great. Everyone was very friendly.

Cons

Was told that in order to be a server, one must first be a hostess for a few months (even though I have had plenty of serving experience elsewhere. I had surgery and was out for one week. When I returned to work, 3 NEW servers were hired.
