Landry's Employee Reviews about "discount program"

Pros

Coworkers/managers are kind & hardworking people, the discount program is okay for if/when you want to dine at another Landry’s property.

Cons

Paying money to eat family meal? I’ve never experienced that in other restaurant jobs, it’s tacky. Also, the upper management will see a hardworking employee and take advantage of their work ethic until they’ve drained them of all energy and joy. There is little to no appreciation for hourly employees and the hourly pay is less than competitive in comparison to other upscale restaurants in the area. Also - hourly employees are required to be free on all major holidays but there is NO holiday pay, bonuses, etc. for working through the holiday season (which is grueling).

Pros

Discount program Regulars Good training program Can make great tips, but depends on restaurant!

Cons

Over worked, dispensable, , no breaks

Pros

Flexible Hours Discount Program Can't think of anything else

Cons

Management is a joke Nothing but politics Toxic Environment Managers who have a "record" with HR are only moved around, not fired. Nepotism

Pros

High check averages CAN lead to good tips, however because they do not add gratuity, servers don't like taking large parties.

Cons

Harassing/threatening servers to sell LSC cards. No gratuity on large parties. Poor management leading to below average employee performance. Corporate seems to only be interested in sales, not an enjoyable environment to work in. They make you buy into (nearly $20 a month) the employee discount program.

Pros

Good food, infrequent complaints by guests, same schedule every week

Cons

Management attitudes, constant switching up of management, discount program, extensive and ineffective training, it's all about making upper management look good to corporate, nobody cares about you as an employee, frequent mandatory meetings (that are unpaid). Some high ranked "untouchable" servers and managers are lazy. Lots of unpunished sexual harassment in the workplace (perpetrators have been both servers and managers).

Pros

Talking to tourists was nice.

Cons

Unorganized management for park grounds. Did not train correctly nor offered help when clearly saw me struggle my first few hours to keep up with large groups, did not want to give me a 15 minute break during an 8 hour shift. Signed up for the discount program to get some water and was denied. I wish they had better structure and were more welcoming. VERY high turnover rate.
