Direct to the point
Waiter (Former Employee) - Newark Airpport - March 20, 2020
As long as I did my job properly no one would question me or micro manage me.
The company offered me health insurance and benefits. Every 6 months I would get a 25 cents raise.

Determination and focus

There is a lot to learn and achieve if you know where you are going and the reason you are there. Focus and the job and leave the drama and you will do just fine.

Typical Work day
Server (Current Employee) - Newark, NJ - October 18, 2018
Thursday to Saturday it is very stressful. Since they fired an employee, they are yet to find another person, and I still don't see that happening. There is also a lot of favoritism.

Hectic place to work. Never enough room to cook effeciently.
Line Cook (Former Employee) - Newark, NJ - August 14, 2018
The airport was a difficult place to work. you had to check into tsa everyday and sometimes you wouldn't have an employee lane. You are part of a union that doesn't really do anything to make situations bearable.
