Pros

I worked in other store and all of the managers where great!!! The job is easy because you just need to scoop the food. we have a secret shopper every month and if you pass them all of you guys will get a bonus. The amount is depend on your performance and how much do you work. some people get $20 and I got $200. basically you get free $200 if you do you job right. You will get free meal every 5 hours and you will get sick eating there but you just need to be creative and add some different kind of cause and you will be fine.

Cons

The only problem you I had there was people that you work with. its a fast food, so you need to be fast and have a good team work skills. If your working with slow cook you will run out of food and the costumers will be mad. If your working with slow co workers you will get stressed out. So just depend on your co workers. Other than that everything is easy and alright.

Pros

Great company, I was an assistant manager for many years, only reason I gave 3 stars. The people I worked with were great. Their benefits were AMAZING. Benefits were why I loved working there. Andrew and Peggy Cherng are great people and love this company.

Cons

Upper management does not care. I can not stress that enough. I left the company over literal verbal abuse day after day. I felt like I was no longer appreciated, and it's sad because I really loved panda. The chinese culture does not have people skills sometimes and they obviously do not care about HR and will threaten to take away jobs and hours cause you're not good enough. I worked my hardest for 5+ years and kept striving to be better but driving home crying everyday wasn't healthy for my life.
