Great Coworkers, Good Pay, Horrible Management - Server Outback Steakhouse Employee Review

Pros

Potentially good pay on weekends Coworkers often willing to drop everything to help you out if you need it Coworkers make the environment bearable, and you often end up making good friends quickly.

Cons

Older employees forced out by constant hiring of new people Favoritism/Politics Unqualified Managers Literally the most stressful work environment I've ever had. Managers are often screaming their heads off instead of helping, and often threatening termination to those who underperform. Said underperformance is usually the result of wild fluctuations between management overstaffing and understaffing. Zero job security Management NEVER willing to take your side when a problem with a customer arises. The customer is always right, no matter what the circumstances.

Pros

The store level can be a really rewarding experience, I come to work and genuinely enjoy my job and coworkers.

Cons

Hovering corporate can be a headache. You don't have a say on which location you are sent to after training just a consideration of your location and commute. The bonus system is lacking with metrics that are hard to obtain and only quarterly. Raises are hardly cost of living wages and seniority isnt rewarded as new managers typically come in making as much if not more than senior managers.
