Pros

It’s very beautiful there definitely.

Cons

I was sent over offer papers and hiring onboarding for the first 2 weeks before my stage. Once I got in there to my 1st stage the chefs there kindly told me I wasn’t what they were looking for. That’s fine, now my second stage, they had me basically work a shift, the chef talked to me before I left about my schedule and if itll be clear the next week. I said yes I’m moving my whole family up from FL. Then I heard nothing from the Bistro but was in contact with HR the whole time getting ready for my orientation but then later get an email stating that I wasn’t “aligned” with what they were looking for. And I get that but I already made life plans to switch to NC but now the rig is pulled out from under me.
