Pros

Endless stores to work around and if you are a friend with the cook, you can eat whatever you want, their food cost management is SUPER POOR

Cons

-It is a boys club, if you're a woman, they will not listen to you at all. -If you complain about a cook male not doing his job, they will initiate an investigation against you. -All the managers don't give a penny if the servers make money and they actually promote "fighting for tables".....is that right? Managers (MEN) will cheat on their spouses with servers, make a WHOLE show and still have their job In overall, AVOID WAFFLE HOUSE, isn't a good place to work at all. IF I COULD RATE THE SENIOR MANAGEMENT -0, I WOULD.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
