Pros

Free drinks, employee discount, nice staff. Some managers were very kind and understandable, others were scary and made me nervous and anxious every time.

Cons

rudest costumers, very disorganized management, no tips, no recognition for hard work.

Pros

You get to build great relationships with your coworkers and the regular customers.

Cons

It honestly all depends on the managers (which switch around like crazy), I enjoyed working at Panera until I started working with my current managers. Now I want to quit and looking for a new job!
