Be Prepared for Corporate Control - Server/Bartender The Cheesecake Factory Employee Review

To achieve upper management you have to have a taste for kool-aid. And, prepare to spend years toiling in the most un-appreciated roles the company has to offer. The degree of corporate control is smothering and unless you like feeling like a easily replaceable cog in the works, do not work here. As a bartender I was expected to work an entire shift without a break. And when I brought this up to management, they asked if I would prefer to use 'breakers.' These are employees whose shift consists of spelling those employees who 'absolutely insist on taking their OSHA required breaks.' This includes sharing your night's tips. Basically, they threatened my days tips in exchange for taking state required breaks. Deliberate carefully before deciding to take a position with this company!
