Pros

benefits are good, vacation, sick days, and holiday pay

Cons

No one paying attention to who works and who doesn't Disorganized kitchen help Everyone does what they want and don't do what they don't want to. Management hire's family friends that make up lies about other employees they dont like, just to get them fired. Some employees just sit around and milk the clock and dont get told anything.

Pros

The kitchen crew was really close and I was able to make friends that I still have. Location was good, it was easy to get to.

Cons

Do more with less help, hired unqualified people to work in key roles in the kitchen. The chef that hired me quoted me a pay rate that was apparently higher than the position usually pays. after receiving my first check it was lowered by 50 cents and i complained and was told that after my review I would get what was promised to me. Instead I got a 25 cent raise. Instead of hiring qualified cooks they would get temp workers or people that were refugees from other countries that didnt speak english and had no experience whatsoever. On top of being extremely busy and shorthanded we were supposed to babysit these workers while still trying to get food out. Cooks were not taking breaks to make sure the work was getting done yet the 30 minute break was still deducted from their checks. Kitchen manager would mess up the order on a daily basis, we would be out of basic produce items such as onions, romaine lettuce and tomatoes.
