Q&A With Red Lobster Employees
We are proud that Red Lobster team members stay with the company more than twice as long as the industry average and that stems from a people-first philosophy that we have never waivered on. At the Restaurant Support Center in Orlando, a plaque from 1970 displays a quote from founder Bill Darden that reads: ‘I believe the greatest competitive edge is our people evidenced by the excellent job they do every day.’ This has since evolved to ‘The heart and soul of Red Lobster is our people’.

Teamework, communication, and less complaining about doing their job
At Red Lobster, the management's shortcomings significantly detract from the overall dining experience. One of the most glaring issues is the chronic understaffing problem, which regularly results in extended wait times and visibly stressed-out servers scrambling to attend to multiple tables.
