    The good thingsI enjoyed working here not just because of the high salary but also their perks or benefits to their employees like healthcare, service charges, tips and bonuses. Also they have a staff meal!
    The challengesThere is no work-life balance since this group of restaurant is in high demand expect that you will work under pressure and also there is exam or validation every quarterly when you get hired.
