Pros

Sodexo is a great company to work for. They treat you with fairness and respect. The company's CEO and the Executive Team are committed to help and support the employees' growth and development because the company continues to grow and needs to retain the talent it already has in their employees and to be able to recruit new talent to fullfil the many new positions that are created every day. Believe me, when you work for a company with more than 110,000 employees in the US and more than 340,000 in the world, and that is still growing even in the current environment, there are always opportunities for new positions. Also, the company is expanding the lines of business to offer more services to their clients, so there is an increasing number of positions for jobs that the organization did not have before.

Cons

Probably one downside is the fact that it is a highly decentrilized organization and you work at the client's site, so some times is like you don't belong to any of the organizations but you have to keep in constant contact with your District Manager and participate of meetings with other managers to maintain your link to the bigger organization. Also, some times the District Manager has many accounts and things to do and it is a little bit difficult to get enough time with them. There is a good intranet to help stay connected but there is not enough time in the day to visit frecuently.

Pros

My direct coworkers and other onsite employees are amazing and some of the nicest and most welcoming people I’ve ever met. The day to day responsibilities are enjoyable to work on most days. Company phone provided for work communications during work hours (you don’t have to take them home with you) Free meals on shifts worked (with restrictions) “Set schedule”

Cons

Work life balance is not great. You hire on for one position or schedule and then end up being required to perform job duties that are outside of your description on top of your daily responsibilities. Wages are really low. Unfair distribution of allotted overtime hours. Benefits are not good either. Insurance is really expensive for not great coverage. Maternity leave is only 6 weeks and only 60% of your pay covered by short term disability (that you pay for out of pocket until 2 years of service)
