Reviews about Pay & benefits for Host/Hostess at Applebee's
Fun place to work part time, pay should be higher
Hostess (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 6 June 2022
This was a good place to work for a first job. I made a lot of friends and learned how to problem solve and succeed in the workforce. The biggest downside is the low pay, but there is a tip pool even if you’re not a server.
Pros
Discounted food, work with your friends, flexible schedule, tip pool
Cons
Some managers are inexperienced, low pay for all the work you do

Poor management
Hostess (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 9 August 2020
Working at applebees was pretty simple. If the manager liked you, you got hours and you didnt get yelled at and could get away with anything. If they didnt like you however, your hours dropped and you were scrutinized for every detail.
Pros
Fun environment, easy work, good customer service experience
Cons
Have to suck up, poor management, catty environment, no guaranteed hours
