      Pros

      * family-type atmosphere among employees here * scheduling is pretty flexible, since employees are allowed to swap shifts * tips in cash * casual setting

      Cons

      * major favoritism * employee morale is terrible * mgmt just doesn't seem to care about service staff * bottom line is all that matters * 20% good customers vs. 80% customers exhibiting terrible behavior * mgmt constantly rewards customer's awful behavior so that they return to do it all again * no investigations into wrongful terminations

      Pros

      Short drive, Half off food, Will work with you with your schedule.

      Cons

      GM unprofessional. Not appreciated for your experience and what u can bring to the table. Tips were poor. Poor customer base. Antiquated POS. No patience to train properly. Are bullies. Heating and AC do not work properly. Extreme favoritism. Do not recommend. Oh and if you didn't make your sales quota, u were told you would lose hours. If a table walked out without paying, they made u pay the difference. Callous, unprofessional, employees came last. Sales is all that matters.
