Pros

I was so excited and proud to work here for the first few years…the values are strong and there are hundreds if not thousands of impressive people here.

Cons

and then there was a CEO transition that drove a cultural change that ruined that. It took a year or so plus bad financial outcomes for her weaknesses to make it down the ladder but they did. First of all she just started hiring her old friends from past roles. The club in Denver couldn’t be more obvious. Then she started chanting mottos and motivational quotes and trying to build strategy around them that no one understood (transform and perform!). Clearly the leadership team has worked their way up for the ego and not to be inspirational leaders. We have to literally watch them perform on stage, dancing, singing, and it’s all main character syndrome. Meanwhile the rest of the employees don’t see what value they bring to the table other than maybe the ability to speak publicly. It’s become toxic, no one knows what they’re meant to do and corporate leadership is about the worst I’ve ever seen at mentoring and actually leading. It was great for so long but genuinely dove off a cliff with the current ceo.

Pros

Working with the team at Sodexo Live was an eventful experience. I learne allot about event planning, large event catering, sales and so much much more. I had the priviage of working with a highly tenured team of food and beverage professionals that were constantly eager to show me their world of F&B. I would be remissed if I didnt mention the many perks I recieved such as theater tickets, access to many differnt kinds of food and pastries. For the most part the over all experience was a positive one.

Cons

Unfortunately when I arrived, the company hadn't had any HR oversite for 15 years onsite and a huge shortage of support remotely. This was a challenge as their were many aspects of compliance that had to addressed quickly. Ther were also many employee relations issues that had gone unaddressed for years. Employee engagement was severly low and the trushworthyness of leadership was even lower. Their were no growth step patterns for the new generation of employees coming into the workforce so many team members felt stuck and took on outside jobs to supplement their wages. This didnt help matter for team members working with a union that was seemingly credible however (in my opion) not very trust worthy or effective.
