Pros

Plenty of hours if you want it kind customers, always interesting.

Cons

People think waffle House's lawless and is not, no support from upper management when there were problems, servers could come in high, not come in at all, be on FaceTime on their phones at tables, and no disciplinary action, every shift $3 is taken out of your check because the owner who's worked $2 million dollars, takes $3 out of every shift for employee meals.

Pros

Good money opportunity regarding tips - balances out to an above average pay at the end of the year. Easley store has good management. Company wide competitive base pay rate in the serving industry. Effective strategy for order taking, placing, and EOS duties. No seniority bias.

Cons

As any serving job, there are slow no-money-making nights. 1st and 2nd shifts are not guaranteed full time. They offer the opportunity to request low income where they will bridge the gap if you make less than minimum wage but this is almost entirely unused by the servers to the complexity of the reporting process.
