      Pros

      - pension cover (although most employers have this benefit) - health insurance - free food during working hours

      Cons

      - in the last couple of years the bonuses and other benefits were cut by approx 75% - long hours with no extra pay for the managers because the interpretation of the contract by the bosses is questionable - your days off will never be truly free as the Ops Managers will require you to deal with your shop issues at all times. - the company was hit hard by the pandemic so expect to work even more hours for free.

      Pros

      My experience working at Pret A Manger as a Team Leader was extremely stressful. During the hiring process, I was told I would have at least one weekend day off, but that promise was not kept. The workload was overwhelming. The company frequently operated while short-staffed, and there was constant pressure to work double shifts. The pay did not reflect the level of responsibility expected of a Team Leader. Another issue was the work culture. If you called out sick or needed time off, there was often pressure to come in, even on your scheduled days off. I also did not enjoy the location where I worked, and I did not feel that the company valued or respected its employees.

      Cons

      You get free food the only good part of working here.
