Applebee's Employee Reviews in Niagara Falls, ON

I had a decent time working here. Most of the staff is great to work with. Its a seasonal job so after the peak season hours slow down . Also it can be a very stressful place when its business.

I really enjoy working with all people and satisfying their needs while maintaining a professional and positive attitude and work ethic.

On a everyday work basis it was normally casual, some days are busier then others of course but for the most part it was a positive work place and all the employees came together as a team to form the best experience for the guests. Through working this job I developed more patients in myself and the work place, which I can appreciate and use now on a daily basis. I think personally the most difficult for me was maybe on certain days I wasn’t feeling the best and trying to maintain good composure, if I needed some air just to take a load off for 5 minutes I would ask and then come back and I would be okay to continue working. The best part I’d say would be getting a better understanding of people and the workplace it’s self and becoming part of a working team, also I’d be lying if I didn’t say the food was so good !! But overall a good working experience. And I am grateful to have had that opportunity.

Good Summer job

Server/Bartender/Supervisor (Current Employee) - Niagara Falls, ON - 19 November 2018

Located in tourist area of Niagara Falls many hours available during peak season (May-September). Great tips and great crew of people employed. Many people have been there for a long period of time. Hours are much slower, tips are much less during off season.

Constructive and friendly workplace.

Server (Current Employee) - Niagara Falls, ON - 24 October 2015

Working for Applebee's is a great experience i enjoy the environment and the location is perfect. Theres always work to be done so your always busy and never bored. Applebee's staff is very friendly and helpful. Management is amazing and very productive, if you ever needed a day off they would work around your schedule. Applebee's feels more like home then a job. The hardest part about working for Applebee's would be the unsatisfied customers and being over staffed. The most enjoyable part of working for Applebee's would be the freedom to express myself, to laugh when i need to destress, to speak and actually be heard, and to preform not just because I'm paid to do it but because I'm inspired to be the best.

Pros

Lots of great specials weekly and daily, advancement opportunities, very spacious, friendly environment, staff meals

Cons

Cons: Seasonal, over staffed, limited outdoor seating, no benefits.

Applebee's

Server (Current Employee) - Niagara Falls, ON - 6 November 2013

A typical day at work includes dealing with every day situations such as going the extra mile to please people. I have learned that I am never right regardless of my expertise because the customer is always correct- the reason being is that without a customer, the worker is jobless. The co-workers are out-going and positive.
