Pros

My coworkers were the highlight of this job.

Cons

There aren't really any benefits at all when i was working here. They aren't really flexible with your schedule. The managers complain if you can't work certain days. They've even threatened to fire me because I can't work certain days.

Pros

Flexible hours, evenings and weekends to work around f/t day job, variety, fairly easy. Earn tips. Not as much as a server, but helpful considering the wage.

Cons

One of the managers in particular has a fragile ego/insecurities and tends to go on power trips. He takes out his mood on employees. There are also favorites, and if you are not one of them he does not treat you well. Yelling, condescension, snide comments, etc. Some employees have worked there for MANY years and still make the same wage they did when they were hired. Experience, leadership & training needs to be recognized and rewarded.
