      Pros

      Red Lobster has been a great experience for me and is extremely flexible with the work schedule.

      Cons

      People don't know how to tip, the hours can be long some days, but the money at the end of the night can be both rewarding or disappointing it sucks not really knowing how much your going to make.

          Pros

          flexible schedule (but if you take time off they usually 'forget' to schedule you). It's really hard to get fired from this company, probably why they're listed as one of the top 500 companies to work for.

          Cons

          unprofessional management, under staffed, overworked,

            Great money..the management is willing to work with your schedule...very happy environment to work in with great customers

            Cons

            Must have flexible schedule...some shifts are long and require long hours of being on your feet constantly

              Cash every shift is nice and I make decent money. Management is very hands on and helpful. Very flexible schedule as there is always someone who can cover you if you need off

              Cons

              Best money is nights and weekends when I need to be home with the family.

                Pros

                Flexible with schedule and will work with you seasonally if you are young and in school. Easy job. Comfortable pay for someone young without a career yet or side job.

                Cons

                Not much room/any room for pay growth

                  Pros

                  The management, food, and environment is great. They respect your availability and are flexible when it comes to scheduling and last minute changes.

                  Cons

                  You have to smell the food while working and aren't able to eat any until after your shift but overall its a great place to work at.

                    Good money for the most part. Flexible schedule most people have 2nd jobs and school so they work with your schedule.

                    Can only work 6 hours a day unless you take s break which they never give breaks only on mothers day or valentines day.

                        flexible schedule and discounts on food inside the restaurants and that is pretty much it.

                      Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?
