Pros

Discounted meals, overall fun environment. Getting to deal with new and different people every day. Having some of the best co-workers of any job I've ever had.

Cons

The upper management is too focused on "the bottom line." It becomes more about hitting labor percentages than making the guests happy and providing good service.

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.
