Pros

having a job in the restaurant industry was a requirement for me to graduate with a AAS.

Cons

it takes 7 years to get a 3-week vacation. every employee needs a raise particularly the ones whose been there for years for example, old employees make $12, and the new hire makes $14. Then they expect the old employees to come in and basically doing everybody job for essentially for free but then the new hires come and do like 4 or 5 things

Pros

Caring and extremely high energy servers, cooks and hostess. The management handles everything at the restaurant with integrity and competence. They know and love their guests. They even know what they order and their other preferences.

Cons

The cuts in hours they are forced to make due to corporate interference.

Pros

Flexible schedule, individual impact, company benefits, insurance even for part time staff, internal promotion favored

Cons

Poor pay, manager competency and commitment can be hit or miss, no full time positions, pitifully low amount of allotted hours for all retail employees. I cannot speak to restaurant staff experiences.
