Pros

Working at panda has been such a good experience for me, after only a month of working there i got a raise to $10 and am now person in charge of my shift, and soon starting training to be assistant manager (AND i'm not asian (; ) . It's a great college job! Besides that, you always get free food. It's not something you get tired of either, because of the variety of chickens, beefs, veggies, etc. you have to work hard in order to get raises, they're not just handed to you. the more you cross train, the higher chance you have of getting promoted, and having a higher salary. so if you don't like to work hard, or go above and beyond expect to stay at theh position you're at, with the same pay.

Cons

i work alot! most panda's could hire one or two more people. working 35 hours, plus going to college full time is nooooot easy. alot of workers at panda do not speak english fluently, if you get hired, and are being trained it is SO hard to understand them. Customers also have hard time understanding...
