Pros

The pay is hard to beat. Panda puts a lot of resources into not only company growth but personal grow to for their associates and management as well. Panda’s benefits program is very generous as well.

Cons

The management requirements have gotten more and more restricted over the years. Very micromanaged by upper management. Meetings require going out of state and spending a few days at a time away from family.

Pros

-you will gain a work-family, work with some really good people here, and... work beside some lazy people who milk the system. -you will do a lot and learn to become more efficient -you will gain firsthand experience in dealing with unreasonable unruly and nasty people -feel a GREAT sense of freedom and relief after leaving here -LEARN TO SAY NO

Cons

-close to nothing raise, after a 6month review finally approved a 0.25c raise after nearly 2yrs at company lol -keep adding responsibilities/duties to the point where the pay becomes questionable...... I was doing both boh and foh duties due to the insane amount of callouts, imagine one person running to cashier/serving and then cooking rice/making fryrice/chowmein/teriyakichicken, see unclean lobby go clean lobby, being the only guy unloading weekly oil/rice bags/soda syrups/supplies/meats/sauces. -customers are aggressive who can blame them? the price per portion is ridiculous -deal with mentally unstable people who walk in and out like it's their home -frequent frequent leadership changes, can't perform any decent performance review for promotional opportunities -HIGH turnover rate, many newbies cry on the first day and never come back :) -do yourself a favor and avoid this job if you could...
