Pros

My co workers were good.

Cons

The management is horrendous. They have absolutely no idea how to run a restaurant. They would be so much better off sticking to running country clubs. Sean the owner of the company would sometimes manage the restaurant that I worked at for them and he was clueless and passive aggressive. They had to cut hours for everyone in the winter because they were unable to provide enough business to stay afloat.

We are sorry that you feel that way as our management team is fully dedicated to the well-being of our associates and our clients. We have invested a tremendous amount into training, adding benefits for our associates throughout this past year. Our owner cares deeply about all our associates and wants the best for them and each of the five restaurants that he operates.

Pros

Properties they managed were cool and very down to earth people at the properties themselves.

Cons

The vision at this company may be clear, but the execution is completely backwards. Corporate consistently prioritized their own image and relationships over the well-being of employees—often placing us in hostile or unsupportive environments just to keep up appearances. When I first started, I was hopeful, but it quickly became clear that making real progress was nearly impossible due to a convoluted and slow-moving approval process. The work became repetitive and unrewarding, and any creative marketing ideas were either ignored or shut down by unsupportive leadership. Over time, it felt like the goal wasn’t to help properties grow, but to keep me constantly busy with performative projects that served UTP’s image, not the actual clients. I’m incredibly relieved to no longer be part of a system that stifles growth, burns out good people, and forgets the properties it claims to support.
