Pros

The money, clientele and my coworkers were fantastic. I’m grateful for the experience I gained while working there, and the people who made it a positive environment.

Cons

While there were some good moments and coworkers I appreciated, I feel like my experience was heavily impacted by poor management, lack of communication, and inconsistent support.

Pros

The people and culture at Jack Stack are truly one of the best parts of working there. I always felt supported by my managers and team, and communication was strong across the board. Management maintains high standards, and the restaurant is consistently clean, organized, and professional. The serving tactics are very polished, and I gained valuable experience that elevated my service skills significantly. I worked there for 3.5 years, which speaks to the overall positive environment and the strong team dynamic.

Cons

At times, certain servers were allowed to remain despite creating ongoing interpersonal drama, which could occasionally impact the work environment and make shifts less enjoyable. Additionally, closing server and bartending opportunities were limited to a select group, which made advancement in those roles feel somewhat restricted. The minimum requirement of three shifts per week can also be challenging for those balancing another full-time career. If there had been more flexibility with scheduling, I would have continued working there longer.

Pros

Really enjoyed being apart of the opening of this Jack Stack location back in 2015. It was intense but alot of fun and we did more than a million in the first week, month?? It was cool. Grateful for the experience.

Cons

Didnt make the best tips there. I think you have to really work your way into a set spot, bartender, closer to make the money. Its unfortunate because you would think high ticket items, great tips. Not so much, made way more money at Houlihans.
