Pros

As a General Cooks Assistant or Cook it's an Okay Job! They have HIGH Food Quality Standards and everyone hops on board to keep quality up! The general non supervisory or management employees for the most part are wonderful people. There are many jobs within this particular location where employees have weekends off.

Cons

In Indiana Sodexo Employees lost their Unemployment Benefits. They don't give all employees 52 weeks of full-time employment per year. Management has done nothing but say they support employees in trying to get their unemployment benefits reinstated. They allow senior employees to harrass new employees offering very little in the way of discipline in such situations. Mamagement, some, leak private employee legal and confidential information to other employees. I noticed in past years where employees have been promoted to supervisory positions when they have no prior experience thus doing a job in the most basic of sense not having people skills nor ability to do things cost effectively. Senior Manager does nothing in respect to getting to know employees. Never has he been seen assisting during busy hours at any of the Rstrunts. Too many self imposed Chiefs bossing people around with conflicting information!

Pros

Low stress environment. Friendly co-workers. Free meals with every shift. Easy to pick up extra shifts. Bi-weekly paychecks always on time. No experience necessary. No interview.

Cons

Not a lot of scheduled hours. One of your shifts is required to be dishwater duty. Experience required for cashier job despite training being involved. Since the job is relatively easy to acquire, a lot of the students working are unmotivated.
