Pros

I have spent 5 years with Earls and they have been a fantastic company to work for. I have worked nearly every position at two locations from dishwashing to managing the front of house. The best thing is the high prioritization of what Earls calls their "partner experience" and it shows consistently throughout leadership in the company. Regular feedback, support and recognition to be successful in your role separates Earls from other restaurants. Considering it is a restaurant setting, I have found that I have been given a great level of freedom, autonomy and support to work on projects within the store that mutually benefit my own learning and growth as well as Earls. On the other hand, they have been extremely flexible with scheduling making Earls the perfect part time job during school.

Cons

Pay for the kitchen staff and junior leadership can certainly be low, although this is showing some improvement. While flexible, hours can often be cut short easily.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to write a review. I would have to agree, the "partner experience" is something that we pride ourselves on and continuously look at to improve. We are in the process of adjusting our pay structure when it comes to paying our Kitchen Partners as well as our leaders so I'm glad that you have noticed the improvements so far!

Pros

seems like a lively workplace and good pay.

Cons

Extremely unprofessional, I drove all the way to Nashville after being asked for an interview. I waited a long time, and during the interview, I was told I'd be hired and that they would reach out as soon as possible. I got ghosted for weeks, I followed up and was told I was not chosen for the position. Stop wasting young people's time. Y'all have all the time to hire a ton of people and ask a ton of questions, but don't have the decency to send an email. Very unprofessional and disrespectful. Especially in this economy people are struggling!
