Pros

Cool managers, good training, family/community vibe, cool events, cool venues around Chicago you get to go to. GREAT FOOD.

Cons

After they get your training out of the way, they give you much less shifts and work opportunities. Some of the older servers get paid to just show up, and don't contribute much work. You're forced to get rid of all the food on your plate, even though guests may get annoyed and clearly don't want more.. Feeling like you will never be in the position of those rich and beautiful you are serving because you are their servants. Not the best feeling.
