Doesn't RecommendI worked at JOEY Restaurants part-time for more than a year
Pros
Although customers were nice and some coworkers were nice and willing to help you if you were first starting out, most of the staff are rude and unhelpful. Money can be good if you work a double shift.
Cons
There is a big highschool atmosphere here. No one likes the new girls and they do not try to include you in anything. Management does not care as they are their own little "prestigious" highschool group. An employee tried to steal my tip on a shared party and manager just laughed and said be careful of him? Doesn't seem very managerial.

Pros
-Great environment to meet people -Ambiance is okay -Food is good -The company puts in great work to attain objectives and they do -Good looking people -Good career opportunities
Cons
-Very fake management -Expectations for partners are way too high -The concept of romancing is good but they are pushing it ; it's good for the clients to know what's in the meal but listing every item to them when they order is too much. We are not in the kitchen to know all that. The clients themselves do not always want to hear all that. The staff is doing too much. -Stressful work environment -Short shift, possibility to get cut after one hour -Favoritism from the staff management -Tipout is insane, you will tipout half of what you make to be honest -Staff Management is on you 24/7

Be more understanding that not everyone will fit into the mold, people learn at their own pace. We are here to work and our job is to serve. Serve with kindness and hospitality. It's not normal for employees to come in stressed because we do not fit the expectations that you are pressuring us to be. Other than that, you will meet interesting people in the staff and while serving.
