Pros

1 free meal per 7hr shift up to $10 employees responsible for remaining balance after $10 when applicable. It was fun making puns with the word smash or smashing.

Cons

Always standing, must meet monthly training requirements through online business web portal. (It's usually a very long winded video that u have to take a quiz on after watching it) upper management is God awful. The wait staff tends to leave without foiling there cleaning duties in BOH as well as most of the prep for FOH that is also part of there job. Off clock employee discount is 10% off. Only pays minimum wage and they employ mostly younger staff so most of the staff is between the ages of 16-25 even with the cashiers needing to be 21+ as they surve alcohol. (Atleast they did when I worked for the company and at the location I worked at for over a 19months)

Pros

Relatively flexible schedule... coworkers were great too

Cons

Very demanding as you are usually the only person performing in one area. Mgmt is typically reluctant to help.
