Pros

Fun, hip atmosphere, Management is very chill. Employee discount at multiple outlets. Scott was always around observing at times he would say hello to staff, always arrived in a casual fashion, he also had a food pantry for employees at the top of pandemic which was thoughtful. At times he was abrupt and a bit abrasive but seemed well meaning.

Cons

At hire you will be promised many incentives that they will not fulfill during your employment. Managers are unprofessional and inexperienced. The company is focused on the aesthetics of the upper management and less on whether or not they are professional. Managers will drink excessively on the job, passive with underperforming staff members. The company staffing is poor you will be asked to do every role under the sun, with no additional pay. There is very little organization. You will always receive your schedule at the last minute. A lot of staff turnover. I was promised commissions for selling tables in the most popular NY venue. My commissions were never payed out, I emailed back and forth with management for months until a founding partner stepped in and paid me out only a quarter of my commissions. No ability to advance if you criticize poor business practices
