Pros

Waffle House designs their system to always be looking out for the customer and its employees. They reward their employees on all levels based on time with the company, sales success and even personal successes. They have incentive programs during shifts, weeks, quarters or years. Their employee support policies are really quite good. They allow maternity and paternity leaves, even for adopted children.

Cons

Working at Waffle House can be real work, on your feet, long hours, poor attitudes from customers and coworkers alike.

Pros

Get paid every week and enjoy a daily food allowance. Tight knit envioronment so meeting your co-workers and regular guest isn't a problem

Cons

Cramped working conditions. Feels as if the customers are way too close to the cooking area. Since it is small have to keep personal life out of the workplace and try not to become too familiar with everyone else at the job (co-workers and customers alike).
