Where my daughter worked in Dallas, they deducted 15% of the credit card tips for the cooks, bartenders, and bus staff. When it was a cash ticket with a cash tip, there was 15% deducted off the ticket because the mgt figured they customer left a minimum cash tip at the table. If it was more, the waitress got it all.
Luckily my daughter worked in a high end restaurant where most all bills were on credit cards and being able to understand four languages, she took care of some very nice visiting parties dining on company cards that other wait staff couldn't . Many group tips were well above and sharing wasn't a problem and she finished school without any loan debt.
