What did you like most about the interview process?

Professional and prompt process. No over familiarity, not nosy, no questions asked that shouldn't have been.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I have received two poorly fitted shirts and half off employee meals. NO insurance or other benefits.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Store cleanliness. Communication. Inventory controls. Ban personal cell phones while on the clock. Local community involvement. Set schedules.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Communication. Training. Policy enforcement. Checking references/employment history/hiring/firing. Interacting appropriately with customers and crew alike versus hiding in office/gossiping/being drinking buddies. Avoiding nepotism. Spot checking inventory/loss prevention.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Arrive ready to work. On time. In uniform. Sober. Learn Denny's standards and follow them. Leave cell phones in vehicles or lockers. Communicate. Utilize the time to do the job you were hired for!

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Small town + high turnover in management and crew + lack of training + inconsistent scheduling + inventory issues + micro managing DM + lower than average wage for kitchen staff = customer supposition + losing good staff + lower revenue
