Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Good training experience on my first week..
I was lucky enough to work for good managers that valued taking care of their employees and promoted from within. I worked my way up from a host to a server fairly quickly and management was supportive and encouraging.
Inclusive helpful understanding direct amd to the point
Very flexable and willing to work with you
I like the willingness to support and work with the team

Insurance and my paid time oft
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I get paid less than all the male employees. Im a key manager for about 8 years now. I know foh and boh but i get paid way less than the opening grill guy who does even know how to follow a recipe card.
they do not pay us fairly at all. I work harder then most of the people in my position but get paid less then all of them. im tired of being undervalued. im tired of putting in a ton of hours to not get paid anything.
My hourly pay as a server is not too bad. But hourly pay as Takeaway is not enough to make up for the lack of tips due to an excessive amount of third party orders. Many shifts we get extremely busy and the majority of our orders are third party, which we don't get a penny from.
Review from Product Dept

The people is very friendly..
Everyone hates outback as much as me
Work tasks are set up to where all departments work as a team, no one gets overwhelmed unless others are also not pulling their weight. Depending on the team, work is pretty easy.
My coworkers are fantastic. Always willing to help eachother out and be kind.
Review from Sales Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
They need to understand we all work for the success of the business. When a directive is given it needs to be enforced by management instead of them hiding in the office.
Review from Operations Dept
Communication skills, practicing mindfulness- and especially patience.
Communication and working together and working hard to meet a common goal.

Review from Sales Dept
The Customers as the majority of them are understanding.
Outback managers typically care about employees as individuals, meaning they're pretty understanding when something personal comes up. They offer support and are understanding that the job isn't your entire life.
My coworkers are wonderful and easy to work with.
Review from Sales Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Equality in the workspace. Constructive feedback and consistency with all employees
stop yelling at everyone infront of people and to make people feel comfortable about coming to them.
Peoples attitude, peoples work enthusiasm, there work ethics
The amount of complaining, the amount of gossip, the amount of judgement towards the new staff and no effort to help, the anount of staff snapping at others and the level of disrespect
Review from Customer Support Dept
La igualdad y favoritismo y el trato de personal
What did you like most about the interview process?
I had a good experience in my interview.
There is no HR so this bypasses the long waiting process of onboarding. There is some computer training that needs to be completed but outside of that, being accepted as an employee, you can start working pretty quickly after being hired.
The quickness of the response
Review from Sales Dept
Very informal. Easy to onboard.
Review from Operations Dept
That the hiring manager saw my potential, and determination to be an asset to the company.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Having a manager that understands how to hire employees

They don't care who they hire. It's a body.
Maybe, they could be jonest about hours worked
They need to ask more questions they just hire anybody
That's an management issue to follow
What makes you most happy at work?
My close work friends and their hugs
interacting with my coworkers and then going home
Review from Customer Support Dept
I enjoy being myself at work and allowing myself to reflect in my work, by offering a unique and memorable experience to guests that isn't some copy and paste script, but something that I create.
Making people who are hungry and sad happy and fed
Review from Sales Dept
The food and the people
