Thank you for sharing your thoughts! We sincerely thank you for your commitment to working holidays. As you know, being open 24/7, including every holiday, is part of what makes Waffle House unique. We couldn’t do that without dedicated Associates like you who help us serve Customers during times when many others are closed. Your willingness to be there on those important days doesn’t go unnoticed, and we appreciate the sacrifices that come with it. Thank you again for being a valued part of the team. We’re grateful to have you with us!

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.
