Pros

Talented and experienced staff, depending on location. Health care if full time. Mobility within the group.

Cons

Managers are often inept because they make less money than many hourly employees, and therefore the pool to choose from for hiring is scant and full of inexperienced or unprofessional options. The group has adopted a "money-first" way of doing business and their concepts are showing that. Each one doesn't stick to its unique attraction for long and is replaced with lesser versions of itself over and over in attempts to be universally attractive and lucrative. However this certainly doesn't inspire customer loyalty or staff retention.

Parasole is a joke.

Pros

Sometimes they make good food.

Cons

Almost all of the restaurant managers in the uptown area are working with a complete complex. They think their job means something and it doesn't. They are just glorified comp card carriers. It's a downward spiral of management abuse on servers, then one or two servers get promoted to be a manager and think that being a evil person is the expected norm. They can't wait to start treating the servers like crap just like they were treated like crap. They work on favoritism, unnecessary comps, threats, irresponsibility, and absolutely no trust in the ability of their servers who have been waiting tables for more than 5 years.
