Over the years the restaurant chain has gone through many lawsuits for different reasons. A former employee sued them for weight discrimination, another for racial discrimination. However, many of them refused to speak on record for fear of losing their job and some assured in their publications that they plan to continue at the restaurant.

In the Hooters statement , the spokesmen explained that the new uniform had been a collaboration with several Hooters Girls who have given rave reviews about it, as have customers. It is true that some waitresses have defended the uniforms, saying that thanks to them their tips have increased significantly. They also added that for the chain its employees are the most important thing and "they will continue to seek a way to empower the women who work for them."
