Pros

Sometimes you can make good money

Cons

Managers are nice but dont really care about you and will schedule you even if you requested off or aren't available that day and also if your table walks out be prepared for them to try and make you pay for it.

Pros

Decent money when you actually are a waitress (guest rep), or if you’re one of the chosen favorites. Customers are fairly nice, and work stations fairly clean.

Cons

Money is not good when you divide it by the joke of a breakfast bar, and food running shifts. Managers talk trash on all employees, including other managers, or higher up employees. Lots of drama, basically exactly like high school. Manager clicks up with chosen few. Says they love to help, but most employees are afraid to ask for it because of fear of feeling inadequate. Zero patience and poor training to new employees. Current guest reps will do anything to not help a new guest rep, even though its part of their job to train. Managers promise hours and then cut them whenever they need bonuses. Food runners get screwed by lack of communication from the kitchen. I would work here again if I wanted to work somewhere for 1-2 days per week and get micromanaged consistently.
