Pros

The food is very good, if you can find time to eat. Was founded on great ideals, but has now lost its values and is just out to make as much money as possible while paying their employees as little as possible.

Cons

Management doesn’t trust their employees, they constantly micromanage and put people down. They’ll say your opinion matters, but it doesn’t, and you will be forever put on the black list for voicing your opinion. Blantent favoritism, especially to Italians If in corporate, assume you are always on call to work - calls, emails, texts will come in on weekends, evenings, vacation

Pros

Amazing managers who listen and care for their employees

Cons

None! Best job I’ve had and would work there 100% hands down if I still lived in the city. It gets insanely busy but it comes with the territory

Pros

Decent community and work environment, huge team so you’ll definitely meet some interesting people. Good for gaining early experience in the restaurant industry

Cons

Volume is unpredictable and inconsistent, so you have to be prepared to either be in the weeds with minimal assistance from management or ready to idle for 3 hours with two walk-ins per hour and no reservations. And the tourists are exceptionally insufferable here
