      Pros

      The hours were flexible and had no problems with needing days off. The other workers were friendly and had no problems with management and made good tips.

      Cons

      The pay is mainly tips so slow days were often a waste of time. Some guests are hard to deal with but overall a great working experience.

          Pros

          Good pay and fun work environment

          Cons

          Management does not schedule correctly and always leave employees to solve problems instead of solving the problems themselves.

            Business Outlook

            Pros

            Started as a hostess/busser and worked my way up to serving. You still make tips as a hostess too which is nice. Management was great if you took time to show them you care. GM was great we called him "Dad" and he really did look out for us young ones. Great place to learn how to hold your own in a fast paced environment and better than expected tips!

            Cons

            Took a year to move from hostess to server because all the other hosts were incompetent. Management frequently brushed aside uncomfortable altercations with customers (liked to have their young girls serve the drunk men)

              FAST $$ Management is easy to approach and very understanding and willing to work with you. Best team of managers I have ever had.

              Cons

              Occasionally I receive false promises of advancement

                Short hours if you like that

                Cons

                Management thinks that this place should be your #1 priority but you never get a single penny besides tips

                  Pros

                  Decent room for advancement (if you could call it that). Discounts are great. Company culture is alright.

                  Cons

                  Management are very narrow most often refusing to acknowledge hard work and promote from within.

                    Pros

                    I served here and enjoyed it, it was very often busy and made pretty good money through tips. Management was always very helpful at my location and always brought in food for the staff.

                    Cons

                    You have to deal with the general public and your earnings depend on how much they are willing to spend.

                      Pros

                      management was overall effective and was able to receive helpful advice in becoming a better worker

                      Cons

                      I was working at a management training store (An active store that trains managers) so there were issues that arose from having a constant stream of new managers/ personality conflicts.

                        management is inconsistent with policies and sometimes makes poor decisions but overall they are good. gets very crowded on football weekends but you make good money.

                      VP of Sales/director of Business Development

                      During the first screening interview I have been asked at times about my job search status and if I am talking to others. While this is probably a question they have no right to ask, I wonder if there is a right or wrong answer. If I say I am interviewing with 2-3 companies, they may feel it is not worth the extra effort to continue the discussion. If I say I am not actively interviewing, it may be a negative sign. Any idea about where they are coming from? (WFH & free agent for a while)

                      Hello! I have two interviews, one tomorrow & another one on Friday. I'm preparing cause I feel that I'm not very good at them & I hate that. So, I'm researching, taking notes & praying a whole lot lol! Is it okay to refer to notes during an interview? Should I ask interviewer if it's okay? I wanna do my best & feel it'll help some ... a little more confidence I guess!
