Pros

-learning opportunities are available -you are surrounded by very talented chefs -the food is sourced through ethical and sustainable channels -food and beverage is excellent and creative -good hours for a restaurant -good benefits -it is fun to work in a museum

Cons

-asst. managers are inexperienced and clearly do not have mentors teaching them -absentee general manager -there is a lack of presence from executive leadership. there should be a monthly check-in to see how we are doing. -managers have poor communication with staff. (Ex. Still have not received feedback from the employee survey that was taken months ago) -disconnect between CEO's message and what is actually going on day-to-day
