GESTIONE MOLTO FLESSIBILE
CUOCO 3° LIVELLO (Former Employee), CONEGLIANO –
L'azienda lasciava la gestione dei singoli ristoranti in
modo autonomo. Questo è un aspetto positivo ed ottimale per i dipendenti.
Essendo una grossa azienda potrebbe aver investito di più in
formazione,anche e soprattutto,nelle figure operative.

A fun and exciting place to work
Administrative Assistant (Former Employee), Overland Park, KS –
Pros: positive atmosphere, challenging, balance of work and life, benefits
Cons: unstable, advancement opportunities
I was the admin/office coordinator. It was a new office and I was responsible for setting it up and preparing it for occupancy. I ordered furniture, decorations, supplies and office equipment. I arranged the furniture, file cabinets and I organized the supplies. I worked with the vendors to set up the phones, fax machines and printers. I arranged the – more...  schedules for recycling, water and janitorial services. A typical day was paying invoices, ordering supplies, scheduling interviews, conducting phone interviews, visiting clients to confirm that our employees were fulfilling their requirements and that our clients were happy. I scheduled meetings and conferences. I prepared power point presentations,attended meetings and I was responsible for recording the minutes. I processed expense reports and I reviewed and approved time cards. I assisted two managers within the office and helped manage their direct employees. My direct managers were responsible for separate areas of the company. One managed the food services at the local area hospitals and the other managed the janitorial services at the local area hospitals. I enjoyed working with both managers and enjoyed working in both areas. My managers were easy to work with and enjoyable. I enjoyed working with the two co-workers that I interacted with. We got along very well and we did not have any disagreements and they were a pleasure to work with. The hardest part of my job was informing applicants that they were not qualified for the position and mailing rejection letters. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. It was a small office; there were only 6 of us. I was responsible for making sure it was running smoothly, everything was working properly and everything was immediately available I was laid off because our company lost the bid presented to continue to working for the local area hospitals and they closed our office. – less

Decisions take place behind doors
Facility Operations Manager (Former Employee), Toronto, ON –
Cons: too much work load, no support from management, politics, decisions behind close doors, no career growth
I once heard a comment that "I'm being left alone by Sodexo in front of a herd of wolves". I guess this clearly defines their methodology and the way they deal with the situation. Less said is better.

Co workers are also not cooperative and are back biters, may be because they are saving their jobs by playing dirty games. I'm glad that I made a decision.

IslandOfOne – May 25, 2012

I was hired for a position that far exceeded my knowledge base because I was the "best candidate", I was told "you won't be left out there on an island...we will be there for you...we know we are throwing an unimagineable amount at you and we don't expect you to grasp it all right away". And there I was alone on my island. PS- they still owe me over $1000!

a work hard and efficient enviroment
Supervisor/cook (Former Employee), Olivet Nazarene University –
Pros: free food, and straight hours.
The day has 2 shifts i was a dinnr cook and a sunday brunch cook and the pace was set by my leader as soon as i would clock in and you worked from the time you came in until we served our last meal. It was full batch cooking but for a large group of 1000 or more students on a daily basis. The cooks are very fun to work with they will keep you motivated – more...  and moving and always had your back when you stumbled a little and you would always have theirs. – less
