Cracker Barrel reviews

Restaurant is open on Thanksgiving. Inconsistencies in how performance was evaluated. Some that were promoted to PAR 4, had no business receiving that promotion. Inconsistencies in how much money you could make depending on what section you received, although it usually evened out week to week. Seemed like management was often listening to your personal conversations. It felt like they wanted to find something out that they could use against you. Maybe it was not management's intention, but somehow a backstabbing mentality was created and fostered. I really learned the lesson "Distrust everyone until they prove to me otherwise" from this job. Employees were often pulled into the office to be asked what they knew about a person or a situation. Seems like employees were 'rewarded' if they came to management with information about someone. Not enough feedback was given about job performance. Company's mission statement 'pleasing people' applied to external guests, but not to 'internal guests', the employees.

Employees continually called out making shifts harder for everyone else, called out all the time b/c they could, knew management wouldn't fire them. Most of your co-workers are lazy and do the bare minimum.
