Pros

Good pay comparable with other restaurant chains. Ability to earn promotions through hard work. Fun atmosphere.

Cons

Open 24 hrs/day, 7 days/week, 365/yr...No Holidays off, ever. Only 1 weekend off every 6 weeks. A recruiter will tell you that a Manager works about 55 hrs/week, however, in order to perform well, this winds up somewhere between 65-80. If you want to succeed at Waffle House, you better not try to have any kind of life outside of the company.

Pros

Pay is very good, you are generally paid for the amount of work you put in at each level of management

Cons

24 hour operation is very demanding on your time, you are at the mercy of the peopele you manage and many of them are inherited from previous management.
