Vantaggi
The Cultural and Systematic approach , along with the workplace relationships created make it an outstanding work experience. The amount of sales potential make it lucrative in any position. This is due to the amount of hard work that comes with employment at a world class restaurants. It's like a theme part (e.g. Magic Kingdom D.W.)The guest wait to eat just like they wait for space mountain. It were people plan to celebrate at or come everyday to eat. One has the opportunity to advance if you navigate correctly through a very an opportunity laden restaurant company. The ever changing , but foundationally the same formula makes it possible for any competent -hard working manager to advance. Showing up early, staying late , building relationships, and learning the vast amount of operational information makes opportunity at the leader in upscale casual dining. Every location is unique as far as the "characters" but the story is always extremely the same. Busy and ever evolving. The restaurant is a cutting end, world-class, advanced operational profit machine. Your co-workers become you best friends and the company creates magical experiences for the staff and the guest. It will be challenging and most likely the most complex, busiest restaurant your ever work at. It fun going to work if you like hospitality and sales volume.
Svantaggi
Like any corporation who you know is often what moves you forward rather then what you actually do. Your direct supervisor is judge, jury, the major decision maker in your career progression. Often nepotism ,personal friendship advance people, rather than actual contribution. Mid- level management is potentially really leaned on to operate. You earn you money coming up. Accountability is inconsistent and many talented managers are not advanced in favor upper-management friendships. Each restaurant is like a 10-15 million dollar government. Truly ran like a Kingdom. Just hope you have a god royal family running the fraternity, sorority, even sometimes cult-like atmosphere.
