What I wish was different

Advice
There's never a dull moment, so really just go into work everyday with a smile and see where it takes you! Work together with your team and it will pay back for you tenfold. Get to know the coworkers and they could turn out to be some of your best friends.

Host
July - August 2022 • Portland, OR
What I liked
The employees there were very fun and welcoming.
What I wish was different
I wish Olive Garden were run differently. Unlike other companies, hosts didn't get a share of the tips made, so you were expected to do a lot for minimum wage. They also make it very hard to work up the ranks.
Advice
Make the best of your experience, but there are better options out there.
