Gibsons Restaurant Group

Some managers here are decent and supportive, others are clueless, others talk down to you like you're a child. If the GM doesn't like you she will find any excuse to get you fired. Lots of favoritism, poorly managed as there is never enough glassware and you're constantly running around to find anything to put a drink in. Half the time all the managers are hiding in the office during dinner rush. They encourage "buying yourself out" of situations so customers expect comps and rude/aggressive behavior is rewarded. They attract lots of foreigners and large parties, but have no auto gratuity so often servers are serving their tables for free or a 5-10% tip of which they have to tip 1/3 out to support staff cause GRG can't just pay them a living wage. The concept of things comping out as their ready is more so the kitchen can be a mess and constantly behind but never blamed because thats "the concept" and servers are responsible for explaining that its "normal" for things to come out 30 or so minutes apart. Management will almost always take the side of the customer no matter the situation. 

A lot of nice/funny people in that place I'm glad I met them, Being a stocker in this restaurant is horrible a lot of lazy workers and always making you do all the work, always understaffed no matter what and This job really messed up with my mental health since I had to work alone a lot while barely people helping you, co workers always calling off. The mangers fired a lot people while they knew it was patio season and a lot of people would come and eat, also lying saying they hired new people while I never saw them only one person. You can't clock out unless ALL OF CUSTMOERS LEAVES at night or you'll get written up for leaving even though your schedule will say you can leave the mangers won't care make you wait for all the customers to leave.

This company, unfortunately, falls short.  This company has an impressive employee manual and training program but lacks any ability to follow what it preaches.  If you have any conscience or any self respect, you will not be successful here.  This company does not have an open door policy. If you have any concerns, hold onto them.  If you like fairness, run in the opposite direction.  If you like performance feedback, you’re likely not going to get it. This company is huge on double standards! Huge!  

The retail MGMT is thoughtless, controlling, egotistical. They only want mindless drones to take orders and refuse to accept new ideas. Zero collaboration between you and MGMT. The restaurant staff are hostile and rude. No member of MGMT accepts responsibility; "that's not my area". They promote a "family" value/environment, however the employees are manipulative and conniving. I would not recommend this business to anyone who actually values themselves because any semblance of individuality and self respect will be snuffed out.

Poor management. Talked out of both sides of mouth (often times creating much confusion). A hostile work environment is the norm. Management rules with fear. No open door policy. If you have an issue, DO NOT DISCUSS IT WITH MANAGEMENT, you will be have an invisible target on your back and will be found to be a problematic employee. The culture that is published in the handbook looks and sounds amazing, however, it means nothing if it's not followed by management.

A typical day at work would be to clock in, get a radio and get dressed, make sure all the menus are clean and everything is organized. I learned many things from being fast, making sure costumers are happy and fixing situations. Management was good, and I got along with all my managers. Workplace culture was the same as many American restaurants. Hardest part of the job was standing in heels, and the most enjoyable part of the job was meeting many new people and socializing.
