Pros
-Job stability: Panda is a monopoly in its segment -Free gym and sometimes food at corporate office -Sometimes free classes -Medical benefits, 401K, profit sharing after certain levels (vested over 5 years), 13 days vacation -Flexible schedule -Diversity in the employees
Cons
-Excessively heavy workload - flexible schedule doesn't really matter when you're doing 2 or 3 people's job -Below market compensation = lower quality coworkers -Long time managers and directors are unqualified for their jobs and wouldn't be hired today -Cult like culture pressuring Landmark classes and formerly Life Academy - ($400-2000/class out of your own pocket) -No matter how they dress it up, it's fast food.
