      Pros

      Free food for lunch break

      Cons

      The structure is shaky. The managers were not open to hearing ideas on how to be more efficient with time and serve the most amount of people.

      You get free food every day you work 20% discount on days you dont or for friends/family Decent Starting wage for fast food Flexible hours

      Cons

      You do a lot of "female dog" work. You're basically a slave to the manager and you get looked down upon by the customers who treat you like dog crap. A lot of cleaning and staying busy

      Pros

      I worked at Panda Express as a high school student, and had an overall positive experience while there. The co-workers I worked with at the time were all pretty laid-back and friendly - making for a good working environment (although each store has a different culture). Management also tended to be flexible about schedules, and understood the limitations of being a high school student.

      Cons

      Besides helping customers, there's quite a bit of other menial work involved (especially starting off). Be prepared to sweep, mop, clean the store at closing, clean the restrooms, etc. Dealing with rude customers is also never fun. However, it's not bad if you're not afraid of a little hard work.
