Cafe Rio Mexican Grill Reviews

Challenges. Wow, where do I begin? -Employees are undervalued and overworked. (Especially if you are in a management position). -No flexibility whatsoever. -VERY stressful. -Corporate has unrealistic-and ridiculous-goals for labor and sales percentages. -Low pay rate. -No time for a LIFE. I am either at work, or running errands for work, or in meetings for work, or sleeping for work. -Never leave on scheduled time. Always am required to stay 2-3 more than scheduled.

Ultimately, what lead me to leave this company was middle management, "restaurant coaches." The lack of professionalism I saw displayed at this level was egregious, and it carried down to restaurant levels because of example. Lack of transparency and directness, gossiping, favoritism. Every solution felt like just another bandaid. Promises were consistently broken. Since leaving the company, I feel like a whole new person. My attitude towards work is completely different now that I'm with a company that's positive and professional, and allows me to balance work goals with personal goals.
