T.G.I. Friday's Reviews

Current Employee – been working at T.G.I. Friday's part-time

Pros – friendly work environment to be in

Cons – not easy to move up

Former Employee – worked at T.G.I. Friday's part-time for more than a year

Pros – Coworkers can be fun to work with and pay at $9/hr is reasonably good for the job you do, but not for the people you have to deal with.

Cons – Management plays favorites and are very picky, sometimes unfair. Not many hours. Friday's restaurants attract a certain 'kind' of clientele who can be very frustrating and downright nasty. I've heard customers yell and threaten my coworkers.

Advice to Senior Management – Treat your all of your employees fairly, and don't hire so many people for one job. Evenly distribute hours!!!

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Former Employee – worked at T.G.I. Friday's part-time

Pros – Servers, managers all crew members get along great and become family/friends. good discount,

Cons – only does things by the book, corporate doesn't personally interact with restaurants. Not able to drink at bar. this would only work for a parttime job, tgifridays being a family restaurant means people feel they don't need to tip if at all.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at T.G.I. Friday's full-time for more than a year

Pros – Lax atmosphere.

I guess if your a drug user, this would be a good place to work because there is no discipline for going into work high. Drunk yes, high no.

Cons – Unorganized, work schedule comes out way to late so you cant plan your life the next week.

If they try and change the schedule because something happened, they dont ask you, nor tell you and expect you to know.

No drug screening so ppl use drugs all the time.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Former Employee – worked at T.G.I. Friday's full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Great training program, they hire fun people who are great to be around for the most part. Most management I've worked with have been good.

Cons – Give out way to many coupons. Most of the regulars are cheapskates who will complain, use 5 coupons, and leave you a crummy tip. Also they hire some pretty terrible cooks, most of them are miserable and hate their job.

Advice to Senior Management – Care more about your employees and not just about the guests. Having people work on Thanksgiving and Christmas is just selfish, same goes for giving out a million coupons, and bringing in people who only care about a bargain and not about the place itself

Former Employee – worked at T.G.I. Friday's part-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Friday's is not at all a stuffy company, runs all sorts of enjoyable incentive programs, and has thorough and efficient training processes. I went from hostess to food runner to server to bartender and really enjoyed it.

Cons – They have cracked down on a few policies. They no longer allow hats, visible tattoos, or smoking on property, didn't affect me in any way but I know several of my co-workers were less than thrilled with the changes.

Advice to Senior Management – None
