Being Micromanaged If you miss work it will be held against you and your hours will be cut. Not accommodating if you're a single parent. No matter how hard you work, someone finds something to pick on.

Pros

City Barbeque really emphasizes creating a happy, welcoming atmosphere for both customers and staff. There's a strong team-oriented culture, and management encourages employees to bring energy and positivity to every shift. I appreciated the flexibility in scheduling and the opportunity to learn multiple roles, which helped me grow skills in customer service and operations.

Cons

As with any busy restaurant, some shifts can get hectic, and communication between shifts or locations isn't always perfectly consistent.
