The worst

Line cook

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They are super flexable in giving you hours if you're wanting to work more.

Cons

they are always slammed. There is never time to do anything but prep and cook on the line. I never got one formal break. The morning crew was majorly understaffed, and night crew was not willing to step up with their free time. instead they went to go play lazertag, or bowled. Managers were oblivious to the problems that was happening in the kitchen.

Dave & Buster’s buyout ruined everything

Pros

Great coworkers, fast paced, high energy

Cons

Dave & Buster’s bought Main Event last year, and it all went downhill from there. Corporate cut our pay, forced managers to cut our hours, and just generally let us know that we’re disposable.
