Pros

I gained good experience. I know what to watch out for in the future.

Cons

Will lie to employees about bonuses in order to get them to work unreasonable schedules. Good chefs are asked to do the work of bad chefs with no compensation. GM will ignore, phone calls, emails and texts. They will deny PTO requests and they do not pay out PTO when you resign with notice.
