Pros: The best part about working here is definitely the atmosphere and the people. It's a lively spot right on the water in Sarasota, making for a great work environment, especially on sunny days. The team really felt like a family, and we supported each other through busy shifts. Management generally tries to be fair and address issues as they come up.
Cons: While the tips can be good, the base pay is quite low, which is typical for tipped positions in Florida. Sometimes scheduling can be a bit unpredictable, and getting consistent hours outside of peak season can be challenging. Training could also be a bit more robust for new hires joining the service team.
Advice to Management: Consider offering more structured training for new servers and ensuring more consistent scheduling opportunities year-round for better staff retention.

Pros: Working as a Bartender, the tips during peak season can actually be pretty good, especially with tourists. It's a busy spot in Sarasota, FL, so there's always a crowd. For a job in the hospitality industry, the cash flow from tips is a definite plus.
Cons: The base hourly pay for tipped employees is really low, as expected, but the lack of any real benefits stings. There's no health insurance or decent PTO offered, which is tough. It feels like a standard mid-size restaurant chain approach, not great for long-term employees.
Advice to Management: Consider offering some basic health benefits, even a modest plan, to help retain staff. It'd make a big difference for long-term commitment.
