Pros

The medical benefit package isn't too bad.

Cons

Their policies and procedures prevent you from succeeding. They hire you to do a job, but then their policies and proceedures prevent you from doing it. Vacation days are very difficult to schedule, and consecutive days off are nearly impossible to get. And unless you have many years of seniority, you will never spend a holiday at home with your family. Their attendance policy is a bit unrealistic, especially for those with children.

Pros

benefits, its just a paycheck, great co-workers, fun place to work when managers arent there.

Cons

MANAGEMENT is inept, do not care about entry level employees that are the face of the company. No communication but they want excellent service by their standards which is a mystery if they dont talk to you. They love cutting labor hours yet expect half staff to give best service to guests. Aren't provided the right tools but are expected to look best.

No recognition from management for passing inspections.

I have been here for 5 years and have recieved no positive imformation and no raises.
