Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes at Golden Corral? We found out what it's really like to work there, from the best aspects of the job to the worst problems the chain and its employees face. Working with such a large volume of food and managing so many customers can take a toll on workers, but according to employees on Glassdoor, Golden Corral doesn't make up for it with generous benefits.
Several employees said that they were never given enough hours to qualify for benefits. Others pointed out that their location was one of many of their private franchises, meaning that management can choose which benefits to offer their workers. Unfortunately, it seems that often translates to none, especially since they can schedule employees so that they just miss the hours cut-off for receiving benefits. One employee summed it up this way:
"There is no paid vacation, no time off, no sick leave, no health benefits, none of that is supplied by Golden Corral. This could be because it was a franchise."
Managers working for a company owned-and-operated store have better options. But, with only 38 restaurants operating outside of the franchise model, and with those benefits only applying to management, that means it's likely most of the workers at Golden Corral don't qualify for these benefits.
