Pros

Diversity of business is interesting. Opportunity to move around is available. Pay is market rate.

Cons

Poor business planning and no strategic thinking. Too much emphasis on reporting. They go through cycles where as the business grow they employ and are just as quick to slash jobs when things don't look so good. This could be alleviated if there was more stability in their thinking and some actual vision.

Pros

If customer pays well, Sodexo passes that to the employees salary. Their benefits are good, for a contract company.

Cons

Vacation/holiday pay is dependent upon the customer account. Never hear from upper management.

Pros

Benefit and 401k packages. No more working every weekend and until 2 AM. Excellent systems that aid in the daily operations of the unit. The in-unit managers are very knowledgeable.

Cons

The compensation system when you are a current employee and you want to advance is not pro-employee at all. You are better off leaving the company and coming back.
