What are perks and other benefits like at Red Lobster?

Great for entry level or students

Lower pay than other restaurants, not much tips, irregular hours, most people here don’t care what they are doing, work environment is meh, no benefits unless you maintain 30 hours per week which wasn’t guaranteed neither

Good employee discount, schedule flexibility, good experience if you’re new to serving, benefits available for full-time

Lack of support from overworked/underpaid management, constant changes to menu/pricing, noticeable decline in human decency as lower prices shift customer demographics

Pros are flexible hours, benefits and vacation pay at 30+ hours per week, casual environment, and any good regulars one may have.

The cons are high turnover, incompetent management, lack of food quality, low wages for hourly employees, old run-down buildings and having to work on holidays, which used to not include Thanksgiving and Christmas, but now does include them. The poor decision making at the corporate level is also a big con. It is very obvious that the “leadership” at the top have very little restaurant experience or have been out of the actual restaurants for so long that they have completely lost touch with how the restaurants actually run. It is also very clear how little Corporate Red Lobster values their employees. The corporate greed monsters forced employees to work on Thanksgiving and Christmas without even as much as holiday pay. Our restaurant was given $50 total to buy food for about 20 employees on Christmas Day.

Fast Paced work environment, decent pay and benefits, good management

Hard work, frequent staff turnover, corporate is terrible

Any port on a storm...just not this one

Company has stopped giving raises, cut all benefits, treats customers poorly so they don't come back, no room for advancement. I doubt the company will still exist in 5 years the way it is currently being run. Top down mismanagement. Overworked and under payed, the company pays less than other restaurants in the same market.

Pay is competitive and benefits are better than most

Long hours and poor senior management

Good benefits and pay. Decent work-life balance

The future does not look good for this company. Senior leadership appears to be following the example of previous owners and becoming numb to the operators who will be the ones that drive the future of RL

Flexible schedule, fair benefits, good coworkers

The leadership for the company keeps changing

Good benefits, 401k, and flexible schedule.

Terrible work life balance. They’re going bankrupt.

Good salary and benefits for full time

Bad work life balance in work
