Pros

Started as a guest service associate at a very bad tip making site. I ended up getting transferred and made decent tips at a better site. Quickly moved me to a supervisor position with very little training. I should have stayed there and took this company for what it is, a good job to make tips while you work on something better to move on to.

Cons

Eventually I moved up to an assistant manager position, I was passed up several times due to the DM's hiring and promoting friends and relatives that PROVED to be unqualified. I was also EXTREMELY low balled when I finally was promoted to assistant manager(I guess they ran out of friends needing jobs) In the long run the salary was less than what I was making in tips. I am now stagnant and in the same situation trying to move to an account manager job, I was recently dissuaded out of applying for an account manager position because it was already "given" to a relative of a district manager. They are WAY OFF on the salaries they offer for the work because in the last month I was working 50+ hour weeks, the GSA position makes more when calculated. I will be leaving soon as I have had several better job offers already with much higher salaries and MUCH better benefits. Not to mention I will not be on call 24/7 and constantly bothered on what little off time I have.

Pros

Depending which location you work at and who your manager is, it's a decently low stress job. You sign the person up and park their car. So as long as you have decent customer service skills and driving ability, it's an easy gig. It's great if you prefer a job where you get to be outside. Getting cash tips every day is really helpful, especially for those of us living paycheck to paycheck. If you work at a location that's slower, they'll usually offer a higher base pay to make up for the lack of tips. They offer a discount through Shoes For Crews, though the quality is meh. Depending where you work, work/life balance is pretty good. My manager was very flexible when it came to asking for time off for anything. But it depends who your manager is.

Cons

You have to work in the cold, heat, and rain. Lots of sun exposure, so if you're worried about skin cancer, maybe pass on this job. Depending how busy your location is, you are on your feet constantly and wearing your body down. If you work at a hotel where the business is very seasonal, you may not make much money at all in the colder months (but tips at the hospitals are steady year round). The benefits are horrible. The medical insurance is mediocre and overpriced. They don't do raises, so expect to make the same base wage the entire time you work there. Upward mobility in the company can be difficult, and even then the management positions don't make much more money than team leads but have a lot more responsibility.
