Pros

free food opportunity to make good friends tips on a good night talking to customers and striking good convos putting out good food and having regulars return

Cons

very competitive, many people want to be in charge so they try and boss others around so much work for so little compensation, it almost feels like a rip-off. the music gets pretty annoying after a while the food is kind of pricey so there's lots of rude customers or cheapo's who don't want to pay

Pros

Free meal on every shift you work Opportunity to make good friends and have fun at work Decent pay after you entry level Flexible schedule Potential for extra money through secret shop program

Cons

Corporation has a bad habit of over working but under paying their employees Steritech for this corporation is very strict and there are a billion silly rules that are suppose to be followed Promotions very based on need more so than who actually deserves it. Favoritism is a huge problem. You can get away with anything if you are the managers favorite employee which creates an unfair environment for the less Favorited. No real benefits Can get screwed on hours based on labor numbers
