Good Money, Bad Culture - General Manager Panda Express Employee Review

Pros

Panda certainly pays a lot, good starting salary, but high requirements to make bonus. Good strict rules on food safety.

Cons

The overall culture is cut-throat. It's a private company, owned by a single family, and the head huncho is a 80 yr self-imagined king. And the middle managements will do anything to make him happy, because he makes them rich based on the hard work of ordinary crew. Work-life balance is nonexistent. Procedures often change at the boss's whim.

Pros

Lots of development and investment in managers and team. A lot of personal development and financial opportunity available.

Cons

Work Life Balance is something you have to strive for but we have recognized need for growth in this area and we are striving to make a difference!
