Pros

Opportunity to meet new people, experience very fast paced work environment, test your multitasking skills, and patience with the general public.

Cons

Not all waffle houses are ran the waffle house way. Some managers don't know how to run a business. The employee hotline isn't worth a crap.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
