Pros

Great People, great atmosphere, a clear ladder for improvement within the company. A ton of opportunity for promotions and transfers if needed.

Cons

Base pay is lower than most other similar brands. Bonuses are available, but the bonuses designed to motivate performance are influenced more by store location than your actual performance. Only about $500 a quarter can be swayed based on your individual output. The other bonuses will net you $0-1800, but 99% of the time your store’s location will have more effect on that bonus than your actual effort.

Pros

Overall, it was a friendly work environment with supportive coworkers and opportunities to grow for people who are willing to learn and work hard. The kitchen experience is great for improving speed, teamwork, and handling pressure during busy hours.

Cons

the workflow and hours can be very dependent on the high season. During slower periods, shifts and business can fluctuate a lot. Another challenge is that the restaurant was often understaffed, which sometimes made the workload heavier for the team, especially during rush hours.
