Organised and fun hospitality work in a small restaurant chain

Waiter

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Organised management and a generally fun and supportive work environment. A small enough chain to be personal but big enough to allow good opportunities to pick up shifts. And good food and coffee!

Cons

The system for scheduling and swapping shifts and booking days off can be quite unclear.
