Pros

- Great benefits - Extremely flexible in hours

Cons

- Disrespect from managers to employees, and employees amongst each other - Managers usually take forever to assist the crew when they ask for help. Sometimes they're just texting, or talking with each other. They're not paid to do any of that. They're paid to manage and assist. - Minimum wage and not many hours offered to just anyone that needs them. Not enough to make a living

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.
