Great Place to Work

Pros

A staff-friendly environment that encourages promoting hard-working employees. You get great tips, I had good coworkers, and I enjoyed the fast paced. You definitely work for what you make-- but that's not necessarily a bad thing!

Cons

You can work long hours and sometimes back-to-back shifts. You are also held to a corporate standard, which I didn't mind, but it might not be for everyone. If you don't want a corporate environment and being on your feet constantly, serving here probably isn't something you should pursue.

Typical restaurant drama

Pros

Able to make good money but only if the managers allow you to close.

Cons

Managers definitely have their favorites. They will complain about you not running enough food while they continuously put you "in the weeds" with how they seat the restaurant.
