      The other people you work with will make or break a shift.

      Pros

      Great co-workers if you are on the right shift. Perfect for a college student. Can make decent money if you hustle and are in a really good location.

      Cons

      The managers are hit and miss. I had some that were great but more than one that led by screaming. We sometimes had to stay until 1 in the morning rolling silverware.

      Pros

      Very strong company that continues to outperform the rest of the casual dining industry. Not worried about company going under and losing a job that way.

      Cons

      Crazy amount of paperwork. Some DM's are almost too "hands on". Almost too much communication is expected.

      Pros

      while i worked there i maad a lot of new friends. everyone mostly got along well. you could almost always find a replacement if you needed to call in. its a pretty simple serving job.

      Cons

      the management changed during my time being there. some managers were great, others not so much. we got backed up alot and ran out of food items which seemed frequently as a server who depended on food items to be there to create happy guests. but i guess you run out of food items anywhere.
