Pros

Corporate culture of empowerment, a sense that you are not always contributing to the downfall of modern civilization. Good food, decent benefits package (that was far better before the IPO).

Cons

Long hours for managers, lots of stress. Publicly traded means profit comes before common sense sometimes. (i.e., the labor matrix penalizes busy restaurants, making it so that labor costs are often as low as 11-12%, which is way too low.)

Pros

Learning and growing to cultivate your own career path into a competent General Manager. The hours are longer than regular but the position is labeled as salary hourly with a minimum of 50 hours per week which guarantees 10 hours if overtime per week.

Cons

The long hours can be tiring and the expectations are less than or equivalent to that of a General Manager and depending who your boss is dependent on what you learn and how you can grow.
