It was meh - Shift Leader Panda Express Employee Review

When I worked there, I was 17, and I was illegally worked over more than 12 hours at a time on the weekends. Not to mention, I was hired at 16 dollars an hour for starting pay when in reality I was getting paid 15, so they lied about my pay too. Add on the fact that we were always understaffed (so understaffed that on multiple occasions we would have to close the lobby) , and that the expectations for panda employees, especially for a fast food place, were so high that it didn't even make sense. I can understand wanting to be clean and professional, but professional to some extent as to where you're not being screamed at just because your apron is tied wrong.
