Pros

The menu is substantial enough, and always evolving. You never get bored of trying to find things to recommend to customers.

Cons

If you've ever wanted to experience working for truly passive aggressive management who have no concise plan for where to take the business, look no further. Sexual advances from management towards staff are common place. The largest issues in inter-staff relations, and employee performance are addressed with notes posted on the bulletin board, and there is rarely any constructive criticism offered where appropriate. Instead expect reprimands for issues never brought to the table before the boiling point. Not the way to grow and develop an effective team by any stretch of the imagination.

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.
