Pros

Tips are good, WH is always busy and this company is not going anywhere anytime soon as they have zero debt. , they train you for almost 2 weeks (1 week of bookwork, 1 week of on-the-job) There is a test.

Cons

Having to CALL out orders to the cooks takes a lot of learning, When they fire you, they do not tell you why and the hiring manager avoids your phone calls when you ask why, if you do get in touch with them they will say they will call you back and never do!

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
