Got hired as a back of house employee so I work in the kitchen. It started off alright but overtime this job has gone from alright to sad and pathetic. The managers are a joke, there is no communication whatsoever and front of house workers are HEAVILY favored. We seem to be always hiring front of house workers then told that back of house are being sent home due to low ticket sales. On a GOOD day, we get lucky if there is 3-4 people working in the kitchen because they bring in 10 people for front who spend all the time talking and playing games while we struggle to prep and stock in the back. Also blatant favoritism for one worker in particular, as she gets away with leaving early, calling off for bogus reasons or simply not doing her job. In short, you can come in and do your work and they'll still find a reason to send you home or fire you.

This job is great for a first time job and will teach you how to deal with customer service. It is also a fun environment and you can watch movies for free on your time off, but the down side was it can be stressful sometimes. The pay at the beginning of working here was good as in they promised us 15 dollars an hour, but sadly they didn’t fulfill that promise and cut down our pay. Some nights you will have good tips as hitting the goal of making 15 dollars an hour and most nights you will make less than 8 dollars an hour. If you don’t mind on going off of your pay by tips then just apply 

Working here was extremely frustrating and stressful due to terrible management. I was expected to juggle multiple roles—server, runner, busser—often all in one shift, with little to no support. The place was severely understaffed, especially during weekends and peak hours, making it nearly impossible to keep up. Management was disorganized and unresponsive, which led to cold food being served, frequent ticket mix-ups, and dirty theaters that were left uncleaned for far too long. It felt like no one in charge cared about the staff or the customer experience. Easily one of the worst job environments I’ve experienced.

If you are looking for a job where you can have fun people to talk to while being severely overworked and underpaid, then this is the job for you. They'll ask for your hours and then ignore you. And when you get upset by that, they'll get mad at you and continue to schedule you for hours you aren't free. Do you want managers that treat you like dirt beneath their shoes? They've got that here too. They make you deliver until you are on the verge of passing out while sitting in their comfy offices away from the rush. And if you aren't free to work at their beck and call, why bother applying? The co-workers are nice to talk to, though. 

This job is as easy as you make it, it’s a pretty good first time job for teenagers or young adults out of high school who need some extra pocket cash. Have been at this location since we reopened in June of 2021 and can definitely see growth opportunities from within if you’re willing to put the work into it. It can be stressful when busy but all in all, it’s a solid place to work at. Management could use a little bit more communication with each other but, not bad for what it’s worth.

Management does not show they care, never really in the trenches with staff members. Staff is stressed, overworked and not paid enough for what they deal with. Pretty bad when 2 newer managers decide to walk out after less than 90 days on the job. Young female employees constantly talking about how manager makes them uncomfortable. Only good benefits are free movies and hourly staff are hard workers. Issues constantly being swept under the rug makes for an unhealthy environment. 

Working at this place was fun, especially the coworkers that you meet there. There are good benefits like free tickets (up to 4), they do movie screening for their staff, half off of food that you order when you come in your off time, and free employee meals. Every now and then managers can micromanage, and the pay is somewhat good, it all really depends on the amount of tip the guest does for you. There might be some rough days, but that is normal for a fast-paced cinema.  Overall, loved the staff, but some were not so good. 

It was honestly a good job in the beginning. I did learn some valuable life skills while working here ,as in how to deal with frustrated people and how to provide solutions to for them. You also get to watch free movies and even watch before it hit theaters. The only down fall is that management is not really good. Sometimes they can be very inconsiderate and condescending of their employees. 

The jobs consists of delivering food and drinks to customers, and occasionally rolling silverware. The job is fun, but management have unchecked egos and make your job a horrible experience. The hardest part of the job is dealing with management. The most enjoyable part is your coworkers and genuine conversations with new people you meet.
