What does the leadership team need to get better at?

They need to show, support, and assert consistancy in helping, encouraging, and motivating their associates to do better, improve the ambiance in local stores, and rid the company of these horrible managers.

What are some of the best things about your team?

The associates I work with are great, they are willing to take charge and do their best, that drive is self proclaimed, the manager has nothing to do with how great the associates are and how hard they work.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Panda express needs to focus on having a strong learning center to have people become managers, not having those who want to get a better position in panda, have to work as a lower position while also doing and learning tasks just to get promotions.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

If you need the opinion of the public and associates, that means panda express obviously don't see any problems or care to find out, having to input any type of concern via a website that doesn't require true connection, only shows how much panda doesn't care

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

There's a reason why there is a shortage of managers in panda, I believe that reason is favoritism, amongst making those who want to be managers look unfit for managerial positions, there is no encouragement in the work place. Compensation shouldn't be solely placed on income earnings, but attitude.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

It's bias without mentioning it, I've sat with a Manger during their conduction of the interview, and all I see is how the new candidate can help that store, I was told to be a manager I have to learn how to use people in order to make the store look good, words of the manager.
