Panda Express Employer Reviews

It is a fast pace work enviornment. Managing a small team is challenging especially when there is worker absent. Manager is responsible to fill in any position if someone is absent, while still maintain management responsibilities. The hardest part of the job is the long hours and the frequency of changing location. The most enjoyable part may be the – more...  paid out of the state training. – less

unlike most other fast food chains panda has an environment that is enjoyable and comfortable to work with others. although they do uphold a much stricter set of rules and regulation concerning their products and cooking methods.

panda will be challenging and not for the feint of heart

They will teach you a lot especially with managing the store. Advancement is what they offer you just have to work hard for it.

This is a poor place to work because they do not care about the employee. The opportunity for advancement is low, yes they teach you the skills but then don't give you a promotion to show for your hard work. The co-workers i encountered here were great hard workers just trying to make their way through. I worked many hours here and ran the store for – more...  a month. It was hard work but this job definitely taught me a lot about myself which i would have to say was my favorite part of the job. I learned that i can run and manage a store, be a team leader, and train others to grow even when the system doesn't encourage it. – less

Joining this corporation had taught me a lot of valuable things. They teach me how to cook and to multitask without rushing yourself and being frustrated. Very clean and good environment to work.

I really enjoyed working at Panda i just needed a full time position and they did not have a full time position for me at the time would love to go back to work for them

Made sure everything was in place to open the store and close it at the end of the day. My managers were very good at what they did but I didn't have a set place to work. They would move me from store to store because I was flexible with hours.

Really great place to start if you have no job experience. Hourly pay increases by increments of .25 cents to .75 cents if you're dedicated enough to learn everything they expect you to learn.

IN ORDER TO WORK IN A FAST FOOD RESTAURANT YOU HAVE TO KEEP A SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND HELP THE CUSTOMERS WITH THEIR NEEDS.IT 'S A FUN PLACE TO WORK AND GROW IN.

Very Productive place fast paced, fast food place, i learned how to take drive through orders. Co-workers were friendly.

While working here, I was immersed in a whole new style of working. I assumed it would be as I've seen on TV, where people just sleep and slack off all day. However, at Panda Express, everyone was very upbeat, looking only to help improve others as well as themselves.

Deliver Exceptional Dining Experience to Guest. Have the opportunity to grow; not only work wise but also in your personal life!

Always have to clean, keep busy with customer or cooking. Great co-workers. Hardest part of the job is trying to deal with an angry customer while its super busy. The most enjoyable part of the job is meeting new people.

Over all good place to work. Good place with high values on keeping the restaurants clean.

*Typical day cleanin out sections where food pans are placed, taking orders either walk ins or drive through, Charging orders balancing monies in drawer.
*I learned what ingredients are used to make some foods.
*Management was great
*Co-workers were very helpful
*when we first opened
*No Down time

Awesome place to work good boss great people but no work life balance very long hours work first personal life second unfortunately not for me but everything else is awesome!

my pros and cons are self explanatory, the one minded demension this company uses to run the store is so ineffective especially during lunch and dinner rushes, they tell u to do some rediculous tasks in the store that don't even make sense

I worked at Panda for about a month and a half and I just had to quit. I couldn't take a place who's values revolve around being Spanish. I didn't feel equal and I was constantly told I was moving too slow. (and I move fast)

They are willing to teach you a lot of things, many different areas of the business rather than just one thing. If you are willing to learn. They take chances on hiring people with no experience for leadership positions.There is a good starting wage, but i had a hard time of working. a lot of hours

Panda Express was actually quite fun to work at compared to other fast-food business places I have worked. Also my starting pay was reasonable.
