Pros
The Food and Beverage Programs are decent. Nice decor, photogenic establishments.
Cons
You have to violate half of the provided handbook in order to fit in. You will be expected to brown nose team leaders who do not perform their fundamental duties and are often intoxicated. 75% of the managers are useless even when sober, because they don't care. The support staff gets paid from your tips but does not often assist with anything, and there is an ongoing company culture of being wasted (not just buzzed, and not just alcohol) at work. Managers wont support you if you cut off a guest. Blatant sexual harassment. Many idiots-by-choice work for these types of companies...corporate restaurant culture allows them to get away with a lot by technicalities. They take the service industry stereotype to a cringeworthy level and they think it's cool.
