Pros

Good balance of family work. I can usually get time off with proper planning (1 month advance notice is a long time to plan ahead, but it works if you want to take the time off).

Cons

As with many food chains, it is always a challenge to retain good help while paying the lowest wage possible. I wish I could pay the help more. It would make my job easier and reduce turnover.

Pros

Short drive, Half off food, Will work with you with your schedule.

Cons

GM unprofessional. Not appreciated for your experience and what u can bring to the table. Tips were poor. Poor customer base. Antiquated POS. No patience to train properly. Are bullies. Heating and AC do not work properly. Extreme favoritism. Do not recommend. Oh and if you didn't make your sales quota, u were told you would lose hours. If a table walked out without paying, they made u pay the difference. Callous, unprofessional, employees came last. Sales is all that matters.
