Pros

Servers make good money because people usually buy dessert. Overall good company to be a part of, there is upward mobility if you are interested in a career but be prepared for it to take a very long time

Cons

Schedule was never consistent, so I couldn't ever plan out other things in my life more than a week in advance. Management was condescending quite often

Pros

Great restaurant to work for! Flexible schedules, wiling to work around school schedules, great co-workers that you will make a ton of friends with, once you're serving there is a great opportunity to make money

Cons

Hard to move up in the company, it took me 3 years to move from the front desk to a server, long hours that are hard on your body, little chance of growth and development,
