Denny's Employer Reviews

My typical day at work is always fun.You greet people before you go in before i clock in.I learned alot from some good people i worked with;how to prep,cook,and a proper way to clean after everything all done.Sometimes,the hardest part at work is the communication.If you don't have that there's no teamwork at all.But everything all better when we do.That's – more...  why i enjoying working with others it's the people around you and no drama. – less

hard work went along way here. team work was avalible through most of the staff

Great place to learn to serve. Opens up opportunities at other places.

Provided customer service upon customer’s ordering, and meals to correct any issues or problems; collected payments from customers; wrote patrons’ food orders, memorized orders and entered orders into computers for transmittal to kitchen staff; prepared checks that itemized and totaled customer meal costs.

I LOVED my job and the customer LOVED me back.
Management was not that GREAT!

Ok place to start off, unless they over staff like at the one I worked at. I was able to witness first hand how a lot of the chefs would prepare the food, and it disgusted me. You go do get a discount on meals, but unless you can cook it yourself I don't recommend it. Old managers understood the problems of their workers, where as the new managers abused – more...  their powers by making people do jobs that aren't in the job description. Hardest part of the job was possibly organizing the stock when the prior shift would just throw everything inside. Not much could be enjoyed when your hours are cut, and you start to make under the wait staff who already make a lower income. – less

I loved my job and was going in to management until franchise took over and said they didn't need anymore management so I looked for another job. I loved having my regular guests and working all the time. Fun place to work and met a lot of different types of people.

The staff at Denny's in London are great. There really care about the customer and give their best more often than not.

Sometimes gets tiring but its a good place to work. The managers are great.

Typical day at work was serving the guess, getting the orders out on time. Being able to deal with the rude guess.

I enjoyed working @ Denny's. I liked meeting all kinds of people. I learned how to be friendly & to treat people the I want to be treated. The management hired too many people. My co-workers were fun. The hardest part of the job was learning the computer. The most enjoyable part of the job was meeting new people.

The hardest part of this job is working the late nights when one has a family.

On some days I would be waiting for hours to get a table and on others right when I walked in I had some. I had to redo or do the servers shifts that were before me often. The managers did not treat everyone equal, and lots of times they were not around when needed.They had their favorites. The hardest part of the job was having the whole restaraunt – more...  filled and you doing your own work, plus everyone elses. – less

Worked late night shifts had the best regular customers, were always fun and awesome. The manager in the morning not as nice or cool as the late night supervisors. Late night supervisors sweet and fun, understanding.

My job requires patiences especially in the food industry when people expect to recieve what they are paying for. Working at Dennys and with the people aroung showed me that no matter what you want out of life you have to work hard for it and thats whiat i plan to do through out my career.

I enjoy working at Denny's because everyone is always happy and hospitable

learned all areas of the restrauant business from hosting, cashier, cook, dishwasher, waiting tables, bartender, asst. manager. on your feet generally for eight hours or more. meet different people from different states, countries.
coworkers assisted you always

A typical day would start with a good morning to everyone then counting of night shift reg then all of the previous day cash, banking, sales reports would be faxed out. In the mean time I'd also go check up on things in front help if needed. Then do walk thru of the place make sure things were up to code. Then bank, If inventory needed to be done I'd – more...  do that or if no meetings were being held I'd just try to make sure my customers and employee's safety, enjoyment, and satisfactions were being held to Denny's standards. At Denny's I learned a lot I know the world doesn't fall on just one's shoulders if anything is going to work you have to know how to be a team player, you need to ask for help when its needed. And to make sure that the customer always comes first. Dealing with pressure was another lesson well learned (1st ever free grand slam promo after super bowl 09). Management at Denny's was like no other I've encountered before but I did learn a lot from them as well. Hardest part was trying maintain a lower % on food cost and labor cost right when the economy started its down fall and what lead to mine. When I left there I left with my head held high knowing I did the best I could. The most enjoyable part of my work at Denny's hands down was the regular customers as well as new customers being around people is my passion and of course my employee's I wasn't just a boss to them I was someone they respected and considered a friend. – less

always getting to speak with customers and hearing different storys coworkers were always fun and always wanted to put a smile on someones face.

i would still be working there but had to quit for personal reasons. my dad was very ill and needed around the clock care.
