Pros

Not a regular fast food job. Accountability and responsibility is placed on everyone. Very positive/constructive environment. Very high incentives to move up in the company. Very team/camaraderie based. Very fast paced (you will never be bored or count down time till the end of your shift). VERY high standards, easily the cleanest and most well run restaurant I have ever worked in. Best job you could get w/o experience.

Cons

Very hard work. Pay as crew member until you move up (which is VERY realistic) is 8.50/hr. At the end of the day its a hot sweaty, very fast paced, stressful food/beverage job. Can easily become your life if you let it (quite avoidable if you put your foot down w/scheduling)

Pros

-- The atmosphere is pleasant to be in, it is not a typical fast food style establishment. -- Every employee gets a Development Journal. Containing; - Checklist's for each stage of the employee's progression. - Weekly entry section to be filled out during 1 on 1 talks with their Manager. - Note's section for writing down technical instructions (computer tasks, inventory tips, ect.) -- Paid breaks, every lunch break includes free meal. -- Quick promotions*

Cons

** Horrible turnover rate - 80%+ of employee's are employed less than 6 months. ** - Poor training. Assume that you will be training yourself on specific details. - After first few weeks, expect inconsistant hours. - Very positive interactions between new hires and managment for first week or so. It is just a front. - Tolerates immaturity, gossip, and disparagement.
