      Pros

      Young environment, scheduel flexibility, a good job to conciliate with studies!

      Cons

      The way some of the managers treat some employees, the fact that all employees earn a very low wage, and some (like me) work twice has hard then others. I didn't get a promotion cause I was studying at uni (still am) and though I would be able to work the shifts they wanted me to, they said I would be tired of studying and wouldnt be able to focus enough to be a shift manager. They let you here there, but you lose desert and other stuff if you choose to take a soup or salad instead of the chips

      Pros

      Experience varies heavily depending on the owner/operator you work for. Free and discounted food. 2 weeks PTO. Vision, Dental and Health insurance. Offers rapid development opportunities.

      Cons

      Work-life balance is nonexistent. In fact, the director of operations has stated numerous times, “Work life balance is a myth”. The company states you are required to work 45 hrs/week minimum; Realistically, GM’s can expect to work 55-60 hours in store with constant calls and messages when home. The company does not count any work done outside of the restaurant toward your 45hr requirement. There is no training for this position as you are expected to figure it out on the job. They offer $2000 per month performance bonus but are always finding new ways to disqualify you and move the goalposts when you actually earn it.
