"I worked at Olive Garden for nearly 3 years and I had found the experience to be very fulfilling. The management and the coworkers were what led me to stay with them for so long. Our team was strong and we managed to work as hard as we could because we knew we were a great team."
"The employees at this establishment take the Olive Garden motto of "We're all family here" to heart, everyone is extremely helpful and staff becomes very close. However, one thing I felt lacked was the cleanliness. Still up to code but some employees chose short cuts that were not sanitary. The hours are great and schedule is very flexible."
"I've worked at Olive Garden for 3 years now, and I love it. Olive Garden is a corporate restaurant with many locations all over. Darden, the parent company of Olive Garden, owns a few other restaurants as well."
"Although I do enjoy working here, they do not guarantee that you, as a server, will make money. With no opportunity to add gratuity, I have had big tops not tip me and I later went home with less than $4 for hours of work. Coworkers are fantastic though."
