Pros

I’m starting my fifth week of training and so far I can tell that Applebee’s is really a fun place to work for. Great manager team and noticed that many of the employees have a long tenure with the company.

Cons

No cons so far, I’m very happy with what I have been through. Great place to work!

It is an extensive and esthetically pleasing cultural menu and experience that is brimming with opportunity

Cons

The learning curve is not for the faint of heart. Rewarding through its progression but commitment and detail oriented focus are a necessity
