Pros

great team to work with, management is friendly, food is fantastic, seating program is state of the art and carry out is a great place to work if you want to get tipped and not be a server

Cons

no room for growth, constant employee rotation, management will say one thing and do another, I signed up to be a host with full intention on being moved to server within three months so that I could understand restaurant environment (seeing that i had never worked in a restaurant), didn't happen, worked as a host for year and a half and quit for better opportunity

Pros

The thing is, all jobs pretty much suck. The goal is to find a place to work that sucks less than the rest. For me, Jack Stack was that job.

Cons

Nothing I won't encounter anywhere else I work

Pros

The money, clientele and my coworkers were fantastic. I’m grateful for the experience I gained while working there, and the people who made it a positive environment.

Cons

While there were some good moments and coworkers I appreciated, I feel like my experience was heavily impacted by poor management, lack of communication, and inconsistent support.
