Pros

If you can get the hours the money is good.

Cons

They will schedule you out of your availability on short notice around holidays or when short staffed. No clear communication between management and staff you will find out from coworkers that a new menu has rolled out, food items unavailable, standards and practices have been changed. Management and Corporate ONLY care about the bottom line. They will ask you to do extra duties not in your job code consistently and without additional compensation. This is especially the case when people call out, quit unexpectedly, or just don't show. They want you to be a team player when it benefits them but let your child get sick or a family member die and suddenly that's not a valid excuse to not be able to work.

Pros

The pay is good, above market.

Cons

Inconsistent leadership makes it hard for us to do our jobs. Last minute rollouts with zero time to prepare the team. You sell your life away to the company at my position, your “off” time is not cared for. You are expected to reply to emails on vacation and track labor. Market partners are out of touch with today’s times and work life balance is nonexistent to this company. We grid all year working for our end of year bonus, that we are constantly being reminded about, only to be told the month we are to get it that we are not. 2024 bonus=“we will pay you in installments” 2025 bonus= “we don’t have the money” Red flags all around.
