Pros

Great fun family environment we exceed the guest expectations as long as we are set up for our shifts and ready to go!!! We escort bowl guests to their lanes! Play games with the guests! Valet guests to the pool tables! Suggest food and beverage items! If a problem arrises, we own the guest til it's solved!!!! We are supposed to work as a team!!!!

Cons

Wish all bar employees would treat guest as if they important!!! Exceed guest expectations!! Not being on their cell phone with their backs to guests it going on smoke breaks when it's a non smoking facility!!!

Pros

Experience with a restaurant which will lead me a better job. 50% off discount. Good hours most of the time.

Cons

Management!!!! My experience at Main Event is one I wouldn't wish upon anyone. Had I known employee / management affairs would be acceptable I would have never applied here. When you continuously have to feel uncomfortable around them and know an affair is going on also witnessing them flirting in front of guests, hanging out in the parking lot together, the employee getting in the car with the manager and they drive off only to have him drop her off in front of her car later in front of employees! This employee later got promoted but if you ask the higher managers they will say this had no factor in her promotion. Also, saying your uncomfortable in your work place and bringing it to the managers attention along with others coming forward wasn't enough for them to investigate. It was okay to just look the other way like nothing happened. I am embarrassed to say I worked for this company and have told others to avoid an application to here at all costs.
