"I am working in a great company"

"I worked at Panera Bread for 5 years and I learned a lot in management, supervising and teamwork. It was a great experience for me and I gained a lot of skills."

"I worked for Panera between 2014 and 2020. When I started the teams were growing, everyone was happy and excited to come to work. Eventually like all little companies, they got too big and went corporate. In the beginning they were all about Panera Warmth and their #1 rule was no jerks, but that all changed at some point. They're on the road to being just another large-ish St. Louis Corporation that people work for for a little while and then leave."
