Most disorganized corporation to work for - Server Applebee's Employee Review

High stress, disorganized and sometimes incompetent management. There was no set day the new schedule came out, managers don't even look at your availability when scheduling. There are "mandatory" meetings that management will do a poor job of announcing and you will have already requested the day off because you are moving to a new home and they will fire you for it. They will change your schedule on you the day before your shift and it is your responsibility to verify daily that you still have a shift and that it didn't get changed without your knowledge. Don't even think about getting home on time. If you're scheduled until 1145PM and have to work at 8AM the next morning at your other job, you will be at Applebee's until 2 or 3 AM, expect it. You have to pay 2% of your total sales to tipping the bartender and hosts (not a problem by me unless your guests leave a fat $0 on the tip line). Expo, the person that runs food, gets minimum wage and isn't included in the tip share, which is unfair because they work their butt's off all night for the servers for minimum wage, maybe. I worked multiple expo shifts and got server wage plus $1/hr =5.90/hr. My particular restaurant was old and needed updating. If you think Applebee's is a clean place to eat, think again my friend. Health standards are barely followed. Don't get a lemon water, ever. Hand washing is a good practice that rarely occurs. The utensils that are used to serve the food get rinsed maybe once and put back into rotation for the next day. Look at the apron of your server- all that white stuff is your food their fingers landed in and wiped it off on their apron. I couldn't believe the minimal health standard followed by this huge corporation.
