Pros

Meeting all the people that came to the locations. Making friends with the guests made most days bearable. Sometimes it was fun.

Cons

Hours were horrible Bad quality of life No time fore family Managers talked behind everyone's back. A senior assistant was hired at a larger salary than the GM...how is that fair? Jealousy is apparently a reason to call human resources. I worked in many locations, and whenever a manager or cast member didn't like something, they would call HR and fabricate a lie about whoever they were angry with that day. I would go home and cry just about everyday because I was doing what I was told and nothing was good enough. I had a manager who didn't believe another girl was pregnant until she went into labor standing at kid check...and her baby almost died because she couldn't leave the restaurant to get to the hospital. Favoritism runs rampant in all locations even when they say it's wrong. I'm so glad I got out when I did...

Pros

-They give you free food up to $30 -The benefits are fairly decent -High mileage pay for traveling -Lots of diversity and inclusion

Cons

-The worst upper management you’ll ever work for. Constant micromanaging. Sets unrealistic expectations with zero support or assistance. All while they take long vacations. -Preach “company standard” but flip flop on every decision with no notice -Constant labor crunch. Expects miracles with ~3 people on shift. -Will have to work out of your area with no added pay -Training is hit or miss. If you don’t speak up immediately about something you weren’t taught, they will blame you. -If salaried, will probably have to work over 40hrs will no additional incentive -Customers above all else. They are rewarded for complaints and you will definitely be punished. -Heavy AI usage. Even in biased customer surveys that will count against you.
