WORST COMPANY - Restaurant Manager Outback Steakhouse Employee Review

Pros

This is the worst restaurant to work for. Stay away! The salary is 80/20. No bonus , it's part of your salary. Lowest pay in the industry. Unreal hours- 12 hours minimum each shift. Zero quality of life. Promotes from within- the result is bussers and cooks are managers, GMs and even Regional Managers- hourly mentality- zero leadership. Very high management turnover.

Cons

Managers don't manage. Managers are expected to do hourly jobs and hourly employees deal with money at the end of the night. No daytime dishwasher - managers are expected to wash dishes. Very hostile environment. Starting from the top. Culture needs to change ASAP.

Pros

The store level can be a really rewarding experience, I come to work and genuinely enjoy my job and coworkers.

Cons

Hovering corporate can be a headache. You don't have a say on which location you are sent to after training just a consideration of your location and commute. The bonus system is lacking with metrics that are hard to obtain and only quarterly. Raises are hardly cost of living wages and seniority isnt rewarded as new managers typically come in making as much if not more than senior managers.
