Pros

1/2 off food, 1/4 of other concepts. Flexibility for school schedule. Great for improving face to face customer relations. Great for improving sales techniques.

Cons

Late Nights. Below average income customer base. Hourly pay for a server $2.13 per/hr. Generally getting stiffed is not an issue but in this recovering economy and because of money saving tips from people like Opera ( Informing her watchers to tip less to save money), a customer stiffing you ( generally because of lack of intelligence or heart) will force you to end up paying out. This is due to the 3% tip share that is given to the busser/hosts/bartenders. Bartenders generally are lazy about getting things from the back.

Pros

The store level can be a really rewarding experience, I come to work and genuinely enjoy my job and coworkers.

Cons

Hovering corporate can be a headache. You don't have a say on which location you are sent to after training just a consideration of your location and commute. The bonus system is lacking with metrics that are hard to obtain and only quarterly. Raises are hardly cost of living wages and seniority isnt rewarded as new managers typically come in making as much if not more than senior managers.
