Pros
Great name recognition, people love Panera and then state their favorite menu item. I was so excited about working for Panera because of my personal experiences as a customer and I thought this was the place for me. WRONG!
Cons
Then the nightmare began....I still work for Panera but marked down ex because I am so determined to get out of this managment experience. Even as a manager I agree with the negativity about the managment as stated in the hourly associate comments. From the start(training) it was horrible, I have never witnessed such conceited, rude behavior from a so called professional. My current store is very hetic, difficult to handle and it's known for turnover. It's really hard to explain how bad it sucks without sounding disgruntled, but please think twice before you take on this uphill managment stuggle. If your ready for a challenge, by all means....give it a whirl! Best Regards
