Pros

Sodexo is the 5th largest company in the world, and they are established on every continent. This is something most companies cannot say. It has been a great opportunity for me to build many contacts and to get some good experience. This has been my first job out of college, and it will look great having such a large company on my resume. Sodexo has many management job opportunities and you can re-locate to almost anywhere in the world. It has overall been a great first job experience.

Cons

Some of the General Managers in the Campus Dining sector of Sodexo often "coast" through their jobs. They do not take the time and effort to secure their clients, ensuring that we will have them for years to come.

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)
