- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros
lots of things going on
Cons
few things to cpmplain about
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Managers, shift manager, and teammates were very helpful and fun to be around at least at my location.
Cons
Like any other job at a restaurant the closing shift has to clean up the entire kitchen, but usually with everyone working together it doesn't take too long.

Pros
Great people at this job
Cons
Long hours but are flexible
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
I loved the company’s core values and the experience they strived to bring their guests.
Cons
There is no work/life balance and when things go wrong, it will require you sacrificing everything else in your life to fix it. There were months where I worked from open to close, 7 days a week—totaling about 95 hours a week and I received no OT pay and no real assistance from my direct supervisor.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Great place to work while looking for a better job or if you are in school and need a flexible schedule.
Cons
Lousy pay (to be expected when working food). More importantly, no one can leave at close until everyone's station is clean... so the hard workers who want to go home have to make up for the slackers smoking out back all night, one of which is the Assistant General Manager.
- Former Employee★★★★★
Pros

Cons

- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Good staff, good parking spots, close to home
Cons
Not enough pay, some work drama with bosses.
- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
good nice hours and time there
Cons
none I can think of
- Former Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Great potential with some old guard managers not held to account.
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Opportunity to rise within the company.
Cons
Understaffed through management. This leaves many 'bad seed' managers throughout their stores. (NW Chicago suburbs)
