Pros
Decent starting wage and pays proper overtime and fast paced, for the most part. Coworkers are fun to work with, FOH staff nice for the most part. Great place to work if you are a male.
Cons
If you are looking to advance in the culinary industry, you might want to check out what you have going on below the belt. If you happen to be female, you will not be promoted beyond a generic line/prep cook. They promise a red seal and call you the rock star of the company but their actions will prove otherwise. All of the kitchen managers are cloak and dagger except for mine, and my name came up for a promotion to sous chef in texts not once, but twice! I was passed over for being born the wrong gender, though my competence surpassed my kitchen manager by a landslide. They will try to skip on overtime pay by making you do split shifts at two or three different locations. I was working 12- 14 hours days with a one hour break in between. I suffered burnout with the hopes that I would advance in this company until I was shown their what's app chat with me being denied a promotion due to gender. I am retired from the industry as a whole at my young(ish) age. This company made me lose all hope in pursuing my dreams. I am spent. I have lost 2 family members over the course of working for them, and they were not sympathetic to it one bit. I was still forced overtime and berated when a tear fell here and there while I was trying to hold it altogether. They tried to force me to work the day of the funeral with no time off. Once I caught on to their bull, they started treating me like dirt. Good job if you're a male, you could probably become a kitchen manager as soon as you are hired if a female happens to be next in line for a promotion with seniority and you can bump her back down where Donnelly thinks women belong!!!
