Working at Olive Garden in Vancouver, WA: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Vancouver, WA Area

"I worked for Olive Garden for a year and a half. Seemingly, Olive Garden tries to foster competition among the servers to earn trips and the like, but that's it. For the rest of the staff there are no incentives that the managers ever mentioned. At the Vancouver Mall Olive Garden, as luck would have it, the manager is especially rude towards the workers, more so when he's stressed, to the point where many staffers have been seen coming out of his office in tears. He promised a promotion twice and failed to keep his word twice, hence the reason I quit. With Olive Garden you get the average chain restaurant treatment, not noticeably better or worse than, say, iHop or Denny's (I was a cook for 7 years, I know about it). But this particular manager is a definite handicap."
