Pros

Everyone is very kind and always works as a team. The management listens to what you have to say.

Cons

It is a restaurant business so of course there are down times and crazy rules to follow.

Pros

You keep your own tips and don't split them between all the servers. You have the opportunity to sell at your own risk.

Cons

There is a lot of cut work. You have 30-40 minutes of side work after every shift that is a waste of time.
