Overall work is fine except that the management tends to maximize the employees skills and most of the time they lack man power hence making us to deal with a broken time schedule.

Productive and Fun work with supportive colleague

Dinning Supervisor/ cashier (Former Employee) - Manila, Philippines - May 18, 2019

In Kuya J restaurant, we have good work ambiance, our managers are very supportive to all their staff and crews. typical day at work starts with staff and crew morning energizing and brief discussion based on last day scenario like any customers complains to correct pats up to make sure that it will not happened again, appraising each and everyone hard works to give inspiration to all for the new day, ensuring the workplace are properly cleaned whereas. The hardest part of our job in Kuya J is the moment that there is on employee resigned or need to go for their new chapter of their life like having good opportunities. The most enjoyable part of our job is despite of being tired we are all still with wide smile and happy because all are giving their 2 hands helping each other.

Pros

Free lunches, team building

Cons

Long hours

Productive and fun workmates..

SHIFT MANAGER (Former Employee) - philippines - January 10, 2019

Most days I get into the office early to make sure everything is ready for our first guests. . I do a similar task at the end of the day, responding to any messages in our scheduling system and walking the Restaurant manager through the plan for the next day. My duties include assisting guests, both in person and on the phone. I schedule their appointments and help address any issues. Many of our guests with concerns that I can deal with immediately. The pattern is similar most days of the week, though I also lead a weekly staff training seminar on a variety of topics, ranging from effective communication with guests to new a policy of the store . I volunteered for that responsibility as a way to improve my leadership skills to all my staffs.
