Pros

Discount at Mina Group restaurants. Fully paid benefits for corporate staff. OK place to gain some experience if you are a student or just beginning your career.

Cons

No annual reviews or raises. Extremely low employee morale. Holidays are not paid. Below-market salaries. Lack of communication from management. Corporate leadership lacks basic managerial skills. Lack of forward-looking leadership. Very reactive management. Always waits until something is an emergency before any action is taken. Absolutely no recognition or appreciation of employees. Little to no opportunity for advancement. Very high turnover.

Pros

I learned extensively about Italian wine varietals. Ambiance was amazing with typically kind guests. income was consistent and operated through a tip pool.

Cons

Difficult management that often times made me feel undermined or demeaned. Tip pool ( pro and con), on average tips were pooled and approximately 33% of tips generated were used to tip out other non serving roles. Out time was later than other fine dining options in the area.
