Pros

Pay and benefits are good for the industry and don't require any prior experience, just a good work ethic. Upper management/corporate truly seem to care about the people and the company doing well. Hours can usually be worked around a personal time availability. I've also seen a lot of people move upwards in the company on all levels.

Cons

Maybe only a half con, but the hours can be long and busy and they almost always want you to be doing something. They don't like paying overtime when they can help it. Lower management can be sub par at times.

Pros

Absolutely none at all unfortunately besides sometimes you get nice customers and the food can be ok, but that’s if your making it yourself in the back.

Cons

Management is a joke, half of them are either on hard substances or sleeping with underage coworker. The drama is horrible, they allow a hierarchy with older coworker so if your new or haven’t been there for 5+ years prepared to be treated like poo and basically be hazed as you would when you join a frat. If other servers see that someone is competition they will go out of their way to either make you feel completely unwelcome, or even team up with the managers to get you fired. Worse than highschool.
