Pros
It's ok. Better if you actually into bowling.
Cons
This company has gone to complete crap since being brought out by BowlMor. Here's everything they've done to employees and league bowlers: -They created an "Eat Healthy" employee menu. Indirectly calling their employees out of shape and fat. So if you decide to order from the main menu, you only get 20% off which is the same exact discount that league bowlers get. Before BowlMor came in, employees received 50% if they're on the clock, or 30% if they're not on the clock. On top of that, after two employee drinks, employees have to pay for drinks now. LOL -They originally wanted to get faze out leagues. They had the audacity to tell DMs that if a large group event is booked, tell the league they can't bowl that week if it's interfering with the group event being able to bowl. Then they got rid of the LDL discount which gave leagues one free bowler if their league was bigger than the previous year. So for example if the league is paying $9 per bowler, one bowler is free. So $9 multiplied by 36 weeks in a season=$324 that the league would save and use for prize money. That pissed off a lot of league officers and messed up a lot of prize funds for leagues who had this discount for years.They finally realized that league play is guaranteed while open play is not, and they tried to make it up to the league bowlers by offering a league appreciation week to the bowlers by offering one free beverage. In other words "we screwed up, sorry". -They cut the hours of operation drastically (removing many senior leagues) while upping full time from 32 hours to 37 hours. Which makes it much harder to keep full time when you go from opening at 9 or 11am to 4pm. They also upped the premiums on full time benefits so much that it's probably better to not register and take the money instead because they don't want many full time employees. Evidence of this is when they said Bartenders are no longer full time employees. We had a bartender who was full time and worked at the center forever. When we told her the bad news of her not being full time anymore, she cried because that meant she lost all her benefits and that was extremely important to her at her old age. That was very sad to see. -Shift Leaders are treated awful. They are suppose to be managers yet they are not allowed to close the building anymore. Yet they can work nights. HOW DOES THAT MAKE SENSE. That limits Shift Leader power as closing managers greatly while making them glorified key holders. What makes it worse is that Shift Leaders are hourly which brings me to my next point: -THEY REMOVED VACATION FOR ALL FULL TIME HOURLY EMPLOYEES. Nevermind the sick time that's gone, VACATION. Which means you will work hard there and YOU WILL NOT BE REWARDED. It's BORDERLINE SLAVERY and it's a direct message from the company that they don't care about any hourly employee. Nice way to kill employee moral. -They most recently just cut bartenders and waitresses to $5 AN HOUR. YES YOU READ RIGHT. They did this because they said it pushes Bartenders and Waitresses to upsell Food & Beverage more to get tip. And that essentially "they can make their own check" as they said. The problem is, some centers customers don't tip much and it's because of the clientele and sometimes because on certain days there's not much league play. So basically these bartenders and waitresses end up making absolutely nothing 90% of the time. THIS ONLY WORKS FOR BOWLMOR CENTERS. NOT AMF CENTERS. CUTTING SOMEONE'S PAY AND MESSING WITH THESE PEOPLE'S LIFE TO MAKE YOUR PAYROLL P&L LOOK GOOD IS SELFISH. We had to tell that same old lady that they were cutting her pay and she walked out the door with tears because SHE'S LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK. Think about the bar staff nation wide that were pissed off.
