Pros

Free food, great employees, Fast paced work made for a good experience. people are really nice to each other, and the managers always compliment your work, makes for a good work experience

Cons

The word raise or bonus does not exist here, if you want a raise, you have to get a promotion for a dollar more. also my hours were severely cut down due to not enough hours yet too much staff. Customers complain over stupid things.

Don't get paid for the work you do

Pros

Tips are nice with the base pay, but if it's busy and a lot of red shirts are working, it ends up being a few coins.

Cons

Don't get paid enough for the amount of physical work you do, especially if you close. It's hot and you often get burned from flying grease and run into people since the kitchen area is usually quite small.
