Pros

for someone in the food service industry it is more relaxed than a restaurant. The main functions of a management job are good. Corporate officers/employees are fair and reasonable.

Cons

Each unit/location has its downsides. Working in one location for more than 5 years is not a good idea. The campus service segment is a tough environment, and staying too long can make management take advantage of your knowledge. In addition if you want to take a promotion it is difficult to leave because upper mgmt at the location will have a hard time filling your shoes, so they are less apt to let you go.

Pros

The ability to transfer and experience different concepts of the business. To learn the ins and outs of the company from a financial standpoint. The ability to utilize sodexho net and other resources.

Cons

Low wages, mediocre benifits, adequate consistency on schedule. Extremely long hours, sometimes 90 + hours a week with no added compensation for days off lost. Low recognition on jobs well done. Very high turnover, hourly and management.

Pros

The culture at Sodexo is supportive and inclusive. The people at Sodexo take pride in their work and are professional. My pay is good and there are opportunities for advancement. I have been able to move up the ladder here and learn while feeling like I am really contributing and making a difference. The benefits are also okay. I feel like my Managers really takes an interest in my career and helping me to succeed. The work is exciting and challenging. There is a caring and honest attitude at the office.

Cons

I could use more resources. There never seems to be enough time to get all the work done.
