The "family" energy in some restaurant job ads is a massive red flag. Usually, it just means they expect you to cover shifts for free or stay three hours late because we are all in this together. I would much rather a boss who treats me like a professional and just pays me for my time.

​Does anyone actually buy into the family culture or is it always a scam?

Nope. I’d never treat my colleagues or someone I work with like family. This is all a ploy for you to not only invest your time, but your emotions into a place. You’d be more likely to work hard and have longer tenure if you’re emotionally invested. I’ll pass. I can work hard and not consider the my family. Also, it really is all talk…most employers would NEVER treat their family the way they treat their employees 👀

You'll put all your emotions into this one basket and they'll still abuse you and get rid of you just as quickly... Honestly the divide should always be there!

I have an MBA from the University of Chicago, not that it matters much in sales. I have always been in a consulting role but I think I can make more in sales. I have a competitive personality and I am bored.
