Pros

Like any restaurant job, the only pro is meeting cool people.

Cons

- YOU pay your own parking. $10 a day if you work 3 days, if more its $120 out of your paycheck a month to park in employee parking (and you will get moved to a much further parking structure during events like Restaurant Week or any holidays, so what are you even paying for?) - Hosts get the smallest percentage of POOLED tips. - Expectations of responsibilities are not reflected in pay - Horrible communication from other departments about events, Hosts are expected to know everything going on in the Eataly store and how it will effect restaurant service with minimal communication. Overall, just not worth it.

Pros

Amazing managers who listen and care for their employees

Cons

None! Best job I’ve had and would work there 100% hands down if I still lived in the city. It gets insanely busy but it comes with the territory
