My experience working at Applebees was not so good. The environment was toxic and I had many bad experiences, not from customers but from co-workers. Im sure other locations aren't the same but the one I worked at was bad. The General manager would yell at employees and lock himself in his office as the restaurant went down. The other managers were left with picking up his workload and understandably were in a bad mood. After all, attitude is a reflection of leadership. The older cooks would make comments to female waitresses that made me feel uncomfortable. However none were ever reprimanded and it was brushed off as them being men. I was freshly turned 18 when I started working there and felt very uncomfortable with how friendly a 32 year old male co-worker was being with me. I know it wasn't just me exaggerating because he made a comment about "Counting down the days" a hostess was going to turn 18. Overall it wasn't a very good experience and they had many employees quit.

Pros and Cons
$10 off any plate, and lunch time was reasonable
Poor management

Enjoyed some of the people that I worked with but not the actual company. When I started out there I was making money that was worth it. I was trained for a server and bartender but trying to get bartender shifts was very hard. Upper management did not want to take into consideration the concerns of the other staff.

Pros and Cons
Training was thorough
Hard to change your availability, Hard to leave shift if emergency.

It started out to be a good place but after we topped out in pay they tried to get rid of you.i learned alot from the opening of other stores. The corporation was a good place for support, but your home store would get angry with you when you went to open other places. Teaching other people what you knew was a great experience for me, loved that part of my job.

Pros and Cons
They gave you a chance to advance if you wanted to
The managers were all about them and not about the store

There has always been a give and take working here but at to what cost. The GM 's DM's and corporate are belittling , and make /if not tell you that your replaceable. No matter how hard you try to please them they will always find something to knock you back down to your place. Coworker are great besides the normal family bickering

Managers and corporate only care about themselves, their money and the company as a whole. They do not care about employees and they will normally refuse your days off due to low staff. Instead of hiring more people they work the regular employees to the brink of exhaustion. They do not care about employees or their families. You either work or your fired. I don’t recommend this place. The only good thing from here is the friends I made along the years. There are no free meals. You get yelled at for taking a 10 minute break every 2 hours. There’s so much more. I worked here fine 2014-2020 and I can’t believe I stayed as long as I did.

I was promoted to general manager of a restaurant that had been run by a manager who let the the team members do whatever they wanted. When I wanted to make changes to do the right thing. Team members would call the district manager who used to be a GM for that restaurant so he felt that he needed to protect them In my humble opinion

Pros and Cons
None that I am aware of
High pressure to deliver results even though the last general manager had no control over the team
