1.5I have a theory: the closer a human is to getting food, and the faster the premise of getting food seems to be, the more aggressive they become - this is especially true when you're in a setting where the food is presented behind a well-polished glass sneeze screen.
Welcome to Panda Express, where the food gets stale fast, the workers treat you like an incompetent, and only one out of a hundred guests will genuinely appreciate your work. Otherwise, they're bombarding you with the item after item, listing off everything you want as you scrape on empty woks for what little pieces of food you can get as your cooks chat in the back of house even though you screamed for them to cook a fresh wok 20 minutes ago.
Not to mention you now have the added bonus of Doordash, Uber Eats, Postmates, and even Panda's own Online Orders to handle, each one of them accumulating like vultures at the foot of your cash register as you process each odrer one by one patiently waiting for an opportunity to bag the online order you've shouted for five times in the middle of a rush while three more print out of the receipt dispenser behind you.
It's grueling, mind numbing, and repetitive to get beat over the head with customers disappointed that you have to cook Teriyaki chicken for 15 minutes so they don't get food poisoning.
It doesn't help that the store was located in scenic Lake Nona: Where everyone thinks they're rich but won't go to any restaurant unless they have a coupon and their cars are all the cheapest models they can afford - and yet they refuse to look you in the eye as they flash their jewelry like you're some kind of disgusting servant.
If you want my advice: Don't join a restaurant where your MANAGER LITERALLY QUITS three weeks after you join the team.
1.9NEVER WORK THIS STORE (1121)-MEMORIAL & HAIRSTON, Stone Mountain, GEORGIA
abuse, bullying, insult, discrimination, retaliation, unfair treatment, no equal opportunity
Stay away from this dangerous person. The General Manager, a S Korean male, Jason Jae Lee, will intentionally destroy an employee’s career.
I interviewed with the then-Area Manager and two other assistants. I made it clear to them that I wanted to work full-time and be trained for a future management position.
I had worked in this store for three weeks before Mr. Lee came. He was transferred from other store. The first week that he came, he ordered me to clean the whole lobby with a machine by myself (although I had not been trained) He called out my name 20 or 30 times throughout the day, assigned work to me, and even yelled at me and told me that I did not need to eat free employee meals, (while other employees were talking or idle). Often there was not one minute’s rest time all day. Abuse of employees is a violation of the labor law.
He asked me several times who live with you, and later he asked a female employee to ask me if I was married. After I gave no respond to the inquiry, my working hours were cut drastically, to about only 20 hours a week. Once the GM helped one female employee to sell her homemade country food to me, I refused to purchase because that she did not have a Food Handler Certification and receipt. Finally, the GM cut my working to 5 hours a week.
I WAS ONLY EMPLOYEE WHO WAS NEVER SHORT ON THE REGISTER MONEY, WAS ON 24-HOUR ON CALL, AND NEVER LATE, AND I ACTIVELY STOVE FOR JOB OPPORTUNITIES.
People of Chinese origin will NOT accept abuse, bullying, insult, discrimination or unfair treatment. GM failed Panda by not fulfilling its Mission, disregarding Panda values, and ethics. The GM trampled the dignity of workers, deprived employees of their rights, arbitrarily cut the working hours of employees, and finally forced employee to leave jobs.
4.7I have been with Panda Express for two years as counter help. I really like this job because they have very flexible hours and management tends to be understanding for every employee and tries to give fair treatment to everyone. It is a fast-paced environment, there will be a lot of pressure and stress at time but over the time you learn how to handle it better. You can always move up position-wise, there is no time that you need to do in order to move up. As long as you are passionate, follow the rules and regulations, you will move up in a couple of months. You also develop new skills that help you in the outside world and work fields. I would definitely recommend this job to people who are looking for their first job or someone who can handle fast- paced environments.
