Pros

You get 30 minute paid breaks, that you're allowed to leave the building during, for every 5 hours worked. Free meals when you work, and 50% off when you're off. Being able to set high standards and only tolerate a team that will meet them. An amazing business model. CULTURE, CULTURE, CULTURE!! That's the best part.

Cons

You MUST be prepared to work, and work hard. Lots of hours, which is kind of a pro as well. The high standards are unforgiving and must be upheld to achieve restaurateur.

Pros

Discounts on food and staff are friendly

Cons

Management does not really care. Sits in office and rarely helps. This does depend on the manager which affects the staff. Imagine working at minimum effort is the acceptable norm and a upper manager comes in complaining that things are wrong and does not fit standard
