Pros

Everyone is like family, relaxed, great work-life balance, fun environment, and friendly. Free meals, vacation, and benefits are nice.

Cons

Systems can be a little outdated and management is sometimes slow/resistant to change, even when there are improvements that could be made. Routine and tradition tops everything.

Pros

Much of the staff become 'family'. Decent work/ life balance for the restaurant industry.

Cons

The long term employees and management is resistant to anything new or any change. Same mentality and procedures for past 30 years. No paid Holidays off, even when the Inn is closed for the day. Instead, we are automatically made to take a 'sick day'. There are only 5 days combined of sick/personal/holiday/snow per year. No Growth opportunities.
