Pros

they will hire you because they need you. Easy to learn job. You get free food if your break falls during when they are serving it. Cardio.

Cons

they put lots on your plate, you serve food around covid patients, pay 10 bucks hour. Lots of call ins and you are usually working alone. Because short staff, the food delivery is slow which result in nurses being absolutely cruel to you. They look down on you and make fun of you and you can't say nothing to them. Patients get mad you are always late too and curse you out. You get asked to do doubles, stay late all the time. high turn over rate. You burn out fast. I had to run, clean dishes, assemble food trays and get yelled at for slow service. My supervisors were understanding and had my back. They did complain to upper management but they just didn't care. It's a demanding job for little pay. You work full time hours when part time and get no benefits, so I stopped helping them with OT. They say they aren't hiring FT and if they do, they promise you FT but hire someone else.

Pros

The work experience and professional networking.

Cons

The operations manager, assistant general manager, general manager, catering managers are some of the most abusive people I’ve ever had the misfortune to work with. How they haven’t been sued for workplace harassment or for creating a hostile work environment is surprising.
