Pros

Really Good money to be made during the months of November-January If you need to pick up extra days for extra money, you can Some good managers out there Cracker Barrel can get busy, so they keep you moving, day goes by faster, the more busy they are Good benefits if your a Par 4... also like the whole Par system Good job for someone coming out of high school

Cons

Some guest can be rude, you have to ignore it Some guest may not tip, you have to ignore it you may be scheduled until 3pm, but won't be leaving at 3pm, it varies. so no exact time you will leave for the day, or night the money you make varies, never know how much you can or can not make for a week walking, walking, and more walking any resturant work is not easy not a good job/career for long term I would recommend this job to a friend, but would tell them not to stay too long, this job can get frustrating at times, and you are very tired after a long day at the Barrel
