Pros

Don't have menu test, easy job to get(high turn over rate)

Cons

Extremely stressful and toxic environment. Around $11-$13/hr but only 25hr/week. Only work at night. Too little workers for volume = extreme stress & decent money. More people working = less stress but very little money. Managers behave poorly and unfairly, regularly talk badly about employees and share employees pursonal information. Company doesn't care about employees, only selfish financial gain. Outback isn't made for delivery, their processes could be compared to a disfunctional start up company. Very little room for advancement unless you have a particularly good manager. Managers place blame on the wrong people and don't care about To-Go unless something goes wrong, then To-Go is blamed and told that we're incompetent. Poor pay, lack training, poor social environment, poor management and unrealistic expectantions - along with disfunctional methods.

Pros

I made amazing money there for 2 years.

Cons

They reduced sections to 3 or 4 tables. I had run shifts that I had 10 tables and my boss told me "I know u can do it." Friday nights went from $200-$250 nights to less than $100. I made $150 on average serving at a pizza diner 26 years ago. Corporate decided servers weren't their bread and butter. I switched jobs in town and daily they remember me from Outback. It's a shame really. I went to Outback this week and it was DEAD. 3 tables during the dinner rush. The new CEO played it wrong. I'll be surprised if they even exist in 5 years.
