Pros
Fun culture and great atmosphere. Not dealing with wild drunks and not frying food all day long. Actually have a chance to lead a team instead of being a backup cook. Great quality of life and amazing opportunities as the company grows.
Cons
Outdated uniform and beard/goatee/tattoo policy. Tough bonus to hit for managers. Late nights. Business can be very seasonal.
Advice to Management
Lay off the outdated "no goatee/tattoo policy" for employees and managers. As the company grows our talent pool needs to be a bit deeper. Not all successful people shave their chins everyday.

Pros
From the first day I interviewed with management at Main Event I knew it was a company with an inspiring culture, lots of energy and total focus on their people. And from my first day of working at Main Event they have done nothing except live their values and embrace their culture. The Team Members are excited to be a part of Main Event and this spills over to the guest that always leave happy and wanting to come... back for more FUN. I couldn't be happier that they invited me to be a part of the Main Event team.

The cons are industry related and not company specific. The positive work environment and teamwork make the industry related cons small in comparison.
Advice to Management
Don't lose the focus on Team Members or the guest. Too often companies forget their roots and lose their identity.
