      Pros

      Good first week experience during training

      Cons

      Management drains out due short staff and manager unable to correct in private staff small issues. And you serve plus clean a whole area. You are just worn out after every shift.

      Pros

      • Competitive pay for the industry. • Strong training programs for new staff. • Leadership development opportunities offered frequently. • Clear expectations and structured systems. • Many opportunities to learn every position.

      Cons

      • High performance standards feel unrealistic sometimes. • General Managers expected to work 50 hours weekly. • Managers required to cover every position regularly. • Limited work-life balance, many long shifts. • Physical strain from repetitive tasks, wrist injuries. • Pressure from ACO can feel overwhelming. • Management style and discipline can feel biased.
