Pros

pay break that's about it

Cons

Where do I begin with this. The manager created a toxic environment. Constant micromanaging, playing favorites made it unbearable to work here. Zero professionalism concerns from employees were brushed off with them having a disgusting attitude that they didnt want to be there. Turnover is extremely high because people can’t deal with the manager’s attitude. No real training or support. You’re expected to figure things out on your own and then get criticized when it’s not done the manager’s way. Which that was her way since she can't manage anyone and shouldn't be employed anyway

Pros

They will teach you everything you need to be successful. They have much higher standards than most places, one of the few places I'd have no problem eating at any location. They'll make sure you have everything you need to meet those standards, especially once you get to a management level. They have corporate trainers and the GM at my location was also great. I'm a GM at a different place now and my experience here left me well prepared me for that position.

Cons

Pay. That's the only reason I left, I would have stayed with the company if I could have gotten a raise and I would definitely return if they offered something comparable to what I'm making elsewhere.
