Business outlook
Pros
Decent pay. Good benefits. Reasonable work-week hours. Excellent management development program. Rarely had to work weekends. The job allowed for lots of creativity in the areas of menu and recipe production. Plenty of opportunity for advancement, and or, relocation.
Cons
Very early start times. (before 6:00 am!) Not good if you are a night person. Ingrained, set-in-their ways staff, that at times were very difficult to deal with. Upper management decided to eliminate the Sous chef position. I was told that I would be required, indefinitely, to perform the duties of that position in addition to my own. This move essentially doubled my workload for the same rate of pay.
