Pros

Actually none, people work here only to pay rent/mortgage

Cons

Title says all. Colleagues are toxic, pay was low, no over-time, really disorganized and understaffed shifts. Dirty kitchens, fake HACCP procedures, and so on.

Pros

Decent community and work environment, huge team so you’ll definitely meet some interesting people. Good for gaining early experience in the restaurant industry

Cons

Volume is unpredictable and inconsistent, so you have to be prepared to either be in the weeds with minimal assistance from management or ready to idle for 3 hours with two walk-ins per hour and no reservations. And the tourists are exceptionally insufferable here
