TGI FRIDAYS Employer Reviews

Was a great opportunity to learn customer service. Taught me patience and understanding for others. I still carry lessons learned here to other life experiences.

I made some of my closest friends at Fridays. The customers were one of a kind.

This may have been the worst job i have ever had from top to bottom .the management has not one clue of what to do with the company the blame those under them for their mistakes. There is no room for advancement unless your in lower tear and upper managements inner circle which consist of men going through mid life crisis. this means every thing from – more... racial to sexual bias.the place is treated as if its managements on personal sand box and only those with in the circle get to play in it. there is no promotion from within the company somebody is always bringing a friend from other companies in the field. Chances are if you work in the warehouse your job is not guaranteed by any means. you come in as a temp and most time you leave as such. If you don't "soft shoe for the man" 9 out of 10 times your temp contract is terminated quickly.as far as benefits and them caring about your personal time and life thats a joke . – less

WORKING FOR TGI FRIDAYS WAS AND ENJOYABLE PLACE TO WORK.
THE COMPANY IS A FAST PACE RESTAUNT AND HAD TO BE ON UR TOES AT ALL TIMEAND HAVING THE FOD OUT AT SET TIMES.
THEIR WAS NOTHING HARD ABOUT THE JOB JUST TO REMAIN UNDER PEIR PRESHURE.
I ENJOYED EVERYTHING ABOUT THE JOB ROLE

A typical day at would was from 5pm until 2am. The hardest part of this job was when I was the only busboy on a friday or saturday making my night stressful, but when there was two of us, we were able to take care of the entire restaurant and have fun at the same time. I made a lot friends working here and still hang out with a few of them outside of – more... work. The managers loved me because I did do my job and helped other people out if they needed it. I learned a lot of responsibility and time management due to the hours i worked. – less

I found this job to be just like any other restaurant job. It was fun to work for, but nobody really took their job seriously.

My experience working here was atrocious....completely unacceptable. The management staff is incredibly mean, hateful, bitter and nasty. The customers are the rudest I have ever encountered in that area. They think that tipping is an OPTION, no matter how well you serve them, and if they tip at all it's like 1%, no exaggeration. Then, after a grueling – more... and abusive day, you are expected to do chores within a time frame no human being could accomplish, and you have to "tip out" your bartenders, hosts, and bussers regardless of how bad of a job they did and how little you got tipped. I mean, who are these people giving this company good reviews, what are they, paid to give good reviews???? Don't work there unless you are a masochist. I only hit one star because zero was not an option. – less

I had a fun time working there but I am in need of something more full-time and in a better location.

first one in or last one out to set up the restaurant for success
i learned the industry in and out and got promoted through the ranks
hard parts of the job include writing a schedual for 206 employees in 2 locations
i very much enjoyed traveling with the company to different countries

I gained great experience here. I moved up rather fast within the company from host to bartender within two years with no previous experience. I enjoy talking with people and being able to brighten their day. I was in charge of training for my store, which required me to perform at the top of my game at all times.

This place provided a fast paced environment. Only the strong can survive.

I have worked at TGI Fridays for almost seven years, and am greatful for each year. My co workers were all friendly and eager to help one another.
The hardest part was the late hours, as we're open till 2am. So working and going to school would to rough at times. Working with such great people made all the difference. Has taught me teamwork, sales, – more... and the importance of patience. – less

GETTING TO MEET DIFFERENT PEPOLE AND CREATING A REALATIONSHIP WITH YOUR GUEST

Always provide great customer service, co-workers all helped each other out when in need. Hardest part was weekend nights because of
the popularity of the restaurant.

I learned how to rotate tables, I enjoyed working with my co-workers, my most enjoyable part of the job was interacting with the guest.

The money their was not bad, but the manager staffing was horrible. The worst part was that their were no communication between the mangers that came and left the company. I did not like working under that type of stress and there were no opportunities for growth.

It is a nice workplace, fun and not boring. But the other servers always have issues, they fight, gossip. Some servers thinks they own the stations, and some senior servers don't let the other servers serve and let them just host because they want to have more tips! The management should fix that problems. The servers hired should be a server, and the – more... senior servers should not be bossy. This company is fun to work with but the management should resolve the issues. I am currently a server I have experienced, currently experiencing and personally heard the other servers complaints. We are all servers and only the management can tell what job we will be doing. – less

very productive co workers. Always a laugh and a lot of fun in the evenings

this company did pay me good but didn't really keep up to there promises towards a former employee who has worked very hard for there company

Over the 5 year span that i was employed with TGI friday i can honestly say that it was an amazing experience. Managers are caring and helpful. Co workers made the time pass very fast.
