I love being a female with Red Lobster.
I love being a successful female with Red Lobster.
It's very important that a company
prizes every individual, no matter the gender, no matter
race, nothing.
You take initiative and you get after a goal or something
that you want to do and Red Lobster supports you.
In my short time I've been here at Red Lobster,
they've provided me with plenty of tools
to either advance my career here or elsewhere.
I'd like to say I've perfected time management,
but that's not always perfect.
I've also learned how to deal with people.
The Manager In Training Program at Red Lobster
really set me up for success, because I
got to train alongside other managers
and got a lot of hands on-training, where
you do the daily things that you do every day,
but you have someone there to support you and guide you
and teach you the best way to do things,
kind of in a hands-on way.
My position as a restaurant supervisor,
I basically oversee a lot of the things that
are done in the restaurant, do what they're all doing,
make sure everyone's doing their jobs,
make sure the restaurant's staying clean, making
sure the kitchen's being run as it should be,
maybe doing paperwork even, side work, charts, things like that,
just helping out and making sure that there's
an extra hand there.
While the benefits that Red Lobster offers
are the best in the industry, it's
almost hard to choose sometimes the health benefits
that we offer.
As a general manager, we are offered a gym membership, movie
discount tickets, different activities that
are in the city, and just the flexibility of our work
schedules and vacation.
You get to go to Orlando and meet with trainers.
And they kind of wrap up all the learnings
that you learned hands-on in the restaurants, which sets you up
for success and you feel pretty confident going
in to your restaurant.
So it was a great program for me.
