Pros

The only good thing about this place is the fact that there are so many servers so your schedule is incredibly flexible. Through an online system, you can release or pick up shifts last minute, and you could always take time off, no questions asked.

Cons

HATED working here. Absolute hell. I would go home every day sore and worn out. I felt completely beaten down after every shift. the place is so busy so you're constantly running around frantically to wait on demanding, ungrateful dirtbags. This place ruined my life for the years that I was there. Also.. for all the work that you do, tips are horrible.

Pros

Always busy, the menu is challenging and changes every 6 months. The recipes are clearly written and made from scratch in house daily.

Cons

It is a factory, push them in push them out. The best is not good enough

Pros

Apart from selling some of the finest restaurant food in the country, the online scheduling, electronic POSitouch system, and a well-organized system are some of the things that make working at the Cheesecake Factory fun. Everything is usually neat and tidy, and you know where to find what you need. The clientele is mostly generous for good service and thankful for a great meal.

Cons

Some managers can critique your mistakes too much. Workplace favoritism is sometimes grotesquely evident. The uniforms must always be white. They can be expensive to replace.
