Pros

Friendly customers and employees depending on location. Flexible hours available. Easy to transfer stores. Good for students in college. Building great relationships with your customers is crucial demand to good pay.

Cons

They have been modifying the work hours and shifts servers work these past few months. On the weekends when thats the time to make the big bucks, ha been disappointing. In the past most servers can make 100-140 in one shift. But now with the new policy "customer satisfaction", the district manager has raised the servers on the floor in one shift from 15 to 24. Being assigned to 2 tables for 6 hours is ridiculous. Average check for customers are $20-$30. With the economy your lucky to receive $5 from them and not guaranteed to know why long your customers camp out.
