Pros

You get hired on the spot.

Cons

You will never have a lunch break even if you work a double shift. Managers are encouraged to be rude to employees. You never know what time you are going home. Hours change weekly and your pay in tips are hidden from you until payday!

Overall positive experience.

Pros

They are really flexible with schedules especially working around college/ university classes, as long as you understand that most restaurants require you to work at least partial weekends. The uniform is pretty relaxed and it was a fun, casual, place to work. Side chores always rotate and seem fair.

Cons

Depending where you work, you make your tip money mostly by quantity of tables rather than quality of tips per table, as their food is inexpensive.
