Bombshells-Restaurant-and-Bar

Typical day on the job lately is: I clock in the afternoon, work for 12 hours, then drag myself home with sore, pruny hands and feet from marinating in grey-water all day. That's my experience as a dishwasher anyways.

Management is mostly nice though. Buddy up with the people who manage the part of the restaurant you fall under (in my case its the kitchen managers). Take care of them and they will take care of you, but be aware that managers of other parts of the place might not know as much about your job and will often be not as empathetic.

Unfortunately, the overall culture isn't always good, usually the kitchen does a good job of keeping morale but front of house tends to collapse fast, resulting in at least one server lashing out at kitchen staff in a passive aggressive manner, usually when whatever is wrong has nothing to do with the kitchen.

All that said, not much can shake the feeling of camaraderie, that you belong, and that the kitchen staff both appreciate you being there for them as well as being willing to lend you a hand.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Training is non existent. The staff is not the problem. Regional and training coordinator treat the business like high school. Constantly gossip with the girls and always are involved in the drama and amplify it. Some how the regional gets away with not being in the store to help, she comes clocks in grabs food and heads out but then doesnt let managers in store manage properly . If you see any issues there is no support. Probably the worst job I have ever had and biggest regret. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Everything moving up the chain of command there is no support and no training and you're expected to know and understand the brands DNA.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxic. It's insanely slow in the day and your required to cut people early for labor cost and then at 10pm it gets really busy and you're short staffed. If you keep staff to prepare for that late rush you still get in trouble 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Boring and stressful in every aspect of management

Do not do it. Working here is not worth dealing with the terrible management, they have know idea what they are doing. They refuse to abide by your availability due to school or another job because they cant keep track of all of us. If you do not show up to a shift you told them was outside of your availability ,BOOM fired! Managers are weird and I have heard of them literally stealing from the girls! The money CAN be good but super inconsistent, lot of people come in with the intention of spending the least amount of money they can regardless of the service they receive. You could make more money at a normal restaurant with customers who wont harass you. Customers treat us like we're objects and are able to return again without being banned. One of the worst structured establishments I have ever worked at in my life. Bombshells cares about one thing and one thing only and that is money, They could care less about the girls that work there and they make that very clear. The hours become exhausting after a while especially if you are someone in school, working another job or a single mom. The only plus was meeting a lot of great girls.  

The most enjoyable parts of the job is all the events that the stores have. Football season is absolutely best time when working. 

A regular shift is 10-11hrs for managers. 
The actual task that are required as a manager are easy, the harder parts are the hours and the constant social engagement with staff and guest during those hours. From training new servers to making guest feel welcomed. You will exert a lot of social energy.  
As well you can get expectations of other work related tasks that you probably didn’t get trained on but will need to accomplish. Bright side of that is that the company will give solutions to complete whatever the task was delegated and you learn something new.

The company doesn’t really stand out in terms of pay and benefits but they do offer bonuses and will host company contests that have monetary prizes. 


I enjoy my job here and working with the company, I have seen all the growth the company makes and it’s great at promoting within. 

All around not too bad of a job.


In the beginning you'll get assigned poor sections. If you're upstairs you can expect to make a bill or lower. Main floor a bill or higher. Business is a bit slower than what you'd expect. You do a lot of work and provide a lot service for below average tips sometimes. A lot of people sit and chill for the games or just to drink. You could be better off at fine dining or even an average restaurant. The managers struggle to keep up with a lot of girls so you see a lot leave thus the high turn over. Kitchen & bar wait time could be better resulting in the place over all running smoother. Managers spend most time on laptops, looking at cameras, trying to find out what girls are doing wrong versus if they're actually providing good service and are usually overwhelmed with issues going on with the store they don't have much time to focus on their servers or guests. Tip out to busser-host-bar is hefty. Side work + silverware + prebuss + long hours. All while you keep that beautiful smile on your face. 

I had opened the restaurant and was a busser for 7 months. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and say that they did not have all processes in place, but in the time that I was working there, it was a not-so-organized chaos. Bussers did almost everything while servers reaped all the rewards. Can't blame the servers, that's just how the company is run it seems. All of my co-workers seemed to lack a work ethic and mostly just hung out and poorly performed their jobs. Management was very lax and commonly hung out with other servers, who were all women, and was very unprofessional. On the busiest nights and nights with events, it was essentially a madhouse. The hardest part at the time were the hours. Being a busser for the night shift, and not having proper organization of shifts, I came in at 4pm and left just after 2am, 4 or 5 nights a week. Again, I don't know how far they've come since opening, but it was ran extremely unprofessionally.

I always thought the outfits were cute, which they are. Honestly the only perk of working there is getting the outfit. I’ve been a server and bartender for 8 years and working at bombshells felt like working at a Dennys with a cuter outfit. They have way too many girls on the floor per shift.. i barely even made $100 on a Saturday night. I’m use to making at least $400 on Saturdays at other spots. I think this is a good job for younger girls first starting out that don’t have bills. The environment is definitely fun, you just look cute, look like you’re having fun to the guests and take out orders. Definitely easier than twin peaks as far as appearance standards but the money isn’t even half as good as twins. I quit after about three weeks considering how bad the money is, and yes i kept the outfit. (If you return it you get $50 or something) 

You have to ask permission to dye your hair or anything that might effect your “bombshell image “ and if you gain weight they can suspend you because you swayed from bombshell image and the suspension is 2 weeks and you can’t be put back on until they see that you’re back to that image ... 
if one girl doesn’t like you a whole gang of girls will side with them against you... I had a girl hit me and nothing was done ... poor management not consistent 1 out of 4 managers is great and high turn over rate between the managers and the waitresses ... you can’t get used to people bc they might quit in 2 weeks and managers are always doing shady things to get fired

Very slow during days shift and very busy during the night, but "learned" how to change an kag of beer, the management was everywhere could be never found half the time and very demanding for you and your position, the work place environment was uncomfortable they had the dishwasher area right next to the girls changing in they uniforms and they had an lot of leaks everywhere maybe the hardest part of the job was dealing with management trying to teach you something but never really teaching you like an manger should do and the most enjoyable part of the job was getting to go home after an long day

Not enough money or business for as much time and effort you put in. People constantly quit, managers are terrible, they only care about money you don't make. Constantly running out of alcohol,  draft beers, everything. Corporate will randomly show up and talk badly about employees to each other and other employees. If you want to make ANY money, you have to work A LOT. This restaurant isn't very busy unless you work weekends during the night. If a customer walks out on their tab, they make YOU pay it. You don't get any breaks during your 10+ hour work shift. The only plus side or fun I had at this job was the few friends I made.
