"I worked at Olive Garden for about a year and unfortunately I had to resign due to the pandemic. I truly enjoyed working with the team and guests. The management team cares for their team members, which in turn, shows in the service the team gives to their guests. And the guests return because of the great experience they have."

"I have been working at the OG for over a year. I have a great relationship with my managers, the "Big Wigs," and other servers. To Go currently has the greatest capacity to make the most money. Carside was only recently implemented and the work load from pleasing guests alone can get incredibly stressful. You will experience bad days here, too. Only theft I have heard of was a purse being stolen out of the break room."

"I worked for Olive Garden since July 2017 and enjoyed every minute of it. The co-workers and managers that I worked with were good people to work and be friends with; it felt like working with a family. The environment was always supportive, which enabled everyone to overcome any challenges that came into existence."

"I have worked for Darden for almost a year now and I must say that it's a great company that offers multiple benefits for its employees. There are 401k programs that promise to help employees retire by matching their investments. There are also charities that help feed the hungry. Specifically one called Darden Dimes that I have taken part of. During my time with the company I have noticed managers come and go but the strong ones always remain and stay true to the core values of providing an excellent guest and employee experience. Mostly the company has convinced me that to succeed in this world you need to maintain a "can do" attitude and it really holds true for the restaurant industry, I believe that working for the company has given me insight on how to maintain a level head in stressful situations and especially how to solve complex problems efficiently."
