Pros

The food is delicious, so the name and product sell themselves. Management on every level treat you with respect. Great health insurance benefits. Hot Schedules make it easy to request time off, swap shifts, communicate with team. Very fast paced, there is always something to do.

Cons

The expectations are very high, so if your standards as an employee are low, don't bother applying.

Good Company overall

Pros

Good workers are taken care of. Long hours but usually there was money to be made if you didn't mind working. As far as restaurant jobs go, Cheesecake Factory is one of the better ones out there. Benefits are offered and the company is growing so there is room to move up in the company if that is your goal. For many people who are just there as a temporary landing spot while they figure out what they want to do, it's a good place to work where you can make good money in an entry level job.

Cons

Corporate Culture sometimes limiting. Sometimes long hours expected of staff

Pros

Supportive management team. Working with people from various backgrounds and interest. The ability to grow and possibly be promoted. Informative staff alignments. Flexibility of schedule. Fun environment. Employee feedback is encouraged

Cons

Working for this company is not for everyone. One must be focused and willing to work hard due to the volume of the restaurant. One must also be a team player, those that are not don't make it.
