Pros

Tips Friends People you will meet I was able to meet my financial needs and go back to school.

Cons

I have worked at Sizzler for 5 years and I can tell you it took a toll on my mental health. Even though I feel like I am doing the right thing, management would tell me I am at the wrong here. I am always a hard worker but that was never enough. It was more of a stressful environment when if I say "No, I can't work today" I would look down upon. I still have that feeling of telling people who are higher than me of my concerns because they would judge me. Very manipulative workspace and favoritism. I am just glad I got out as soon as I decided that my future is in school. Remember, no benefits, headache, feet hurt, and management is always breathing down your neck.
