Pros

You get you and 5 friends free game cards to play unlimited video games for an hour and a half. Every day if you want. You and 5 friends get 1/2 off the menu and other activities.

Cons

It's a minimum wage job. The workers are mostly high school age. The bar drinks are expensive.

Pros

Foods are half off; on days off employees get up to 6 cards with an hour of gameplay and occasionally free bowling.

Cons

Management was horrible. After telling one person not to do something and telling them to clean up, managers would walk around and laugh and talk picking favorites
