Big Boy Restaurants

Working with quality co-workers. Prepared soups and salads for the bar. Kept the bar fresh and clean at all times.Learned to  work at a fast pace, time management,and people skills It was an exciting experience that made getting to know the regular patrons, and working with employees that were willing to help. Keeping up with my duties as well as helping out the wait staff. The hardest part of the job was having to keep up the bar when a rush arose. Having to cook soups slowed me down because it took 15 minutes to cook soups, This slowed me down because while cooking one soup ahead, sometimes the wait staff would use my backups and not notify that they used them. I was thankful that since most of our patrons were regulars the understood

As I said in the summary, it's a decent place to start. You learn how to work in a fast paced environment and how to also deal with people who may not necessarily be in the best of moods. 

Management was decent for the most part, but they were changed around a lot for several months at a time. Honestly the hardest part of the job was the work load and some of the employees.

My favorite part of working there were the people I got to work with. Even long after I stopped enjoying actually working there, I still enjoyed the people I worked with.

What is the best part of working at the company?
  The customers.  Best clientele at any restaurant I've worked at so far

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I worked for a franchise, so there's that. Totally different from a corporate store.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fun an positive, entertaining. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
8-10 hr shifts. Count petty cash, change shift drawer,make prep sheet and temperature log for the day. Close lock up set alarm. Basically everything

This location was going through a lot trying to come back  from covid, the amount of work put on servers is insane. Not only did we have the basic server responsibilities, hosting, taking orders, side work. But big boy made up make pies, and soup, and we had to make syrups and stuff they should have had prep cooks to do. It really made the service of the restaurant poor. 

Some of the managers are great to work with. They have a nice personality and care about what is going on in your life. I've had one manager be mean to every employee and have tons of complaints about him, but no one would do anything about it. The servers I work with though are some of the nicest people I have ever worked with, and I have come to love them as great friends. Overall, I love working with Big Boy, but I just want a change.

Big Boy Restaurants Is not a company I would recommend as a experienced Manager with results driven hands on experience to work. The cleanliness and food safety systems are a mess for a restaurant with an elderly clientele. The Training is sub par and support from corporate level is non existent when trying to improve
the preformance of tenured employees.

They just want managers to run their stores, and cook and do dishes.   The only thing this company is worried about, is food cost and labor. Thus they do not care about the customer service, because the managers are either doing dishes or c

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing good except free food and drinks

Working overtime without getting paid

Very uncomfortable and divisive 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
12 hrs pretty easy but watched like a hawk

typical day included watering plants/flowers.cleaning the brass.cleaning windows.sweeping the parking lot.the management was great,very nice and respectful.good leaders,motivated.

hardest part was hooking up the hose.

enjoyable part was watering flowers.

I learned to be a better maintenance man and efficient.

I started out on the salad bar and eventually moved to days quickly which is where the money is at. I learned to be quick on my feet and always smile, that's what earns you money. Hardest part of my job was dealing with unsatisfied customers. Favorite part of the job was having money each day.
