Pros

Decent compensation for the industry

Cons

Very mismanaged & leadership decisions don't make sense Only restaurant I've seen where a non-chef owner makes up the menu on her own whim Owner is shady - love bombs new team members under the pretense that they are a "love brand"; everything is "epic"; throws money at problems without fixing the real issues; her way or the highway (nobody in leadership or corporate will tell her "no" because she'll throw a fit)

Pros

Pay well considering the surrounding market

Cons

Self centered owner, loves AI for everything. Growing too fast, not caring enough to install systems that lead to success. Ok with being effective not efficient. Zero support, too many apps to do a single task, new restaurant openings are full of broken hand me down equipment(side effect of growing too fast) their maintenance team on multiple occasions they have been reported to management for weird behavior, One time they (maintenance worker) were sending unwanted texts to the host, and she made a complaint and nothing was done. Rude FOH management. They lack the ability to hold responsible parties accountable. You can work 65 hrs a week and they'll still act like you dont work enough
