Complimentary meals can't outweigh low pay and high turnover

Pros

Complimentary shift meal was the only bright side

Cons

High turnover, 2+ hours of sidework, even with 20% tip the hourly wage is ~$10/hr because they only give you like 3 tables. They over staff each shift because people call out all the time. Team is miserable - never saw a single person smile
