Pros

Meeting great staff FOH and BOH

Cons

No monthly salary as discussed during orientation. Bonuses totaled around 700 for year 2024. I was basically an overpaid line cook. No exaggeration. Weekly inventory and truck orders was all there was to do for managers. The rest of the day consisted of being a prep as the open mgr(we literally didn’t have a prep), hosting, bagging orders, and being the best line could you could ever want to be. Get comfortable on broil!
