I worked at Pret A Manger part-time for more than a year
Pros
Lots of free food, free coffee, they work around your schedule, and the pay is pretty good. Manager was awesome, but depends on the location.
Cons
Between grumpy coworkers, grumpy customers, and homeless people constantly destroying the bathroom, this place was just a headache. Definitely a job for morning people who don't mind hectic, robotic work that eats away at your soul one day at a time. The turnover rate was ridiculously high, and for good reason.

Employee Review
"Great perks that come with a price"
I have been working at Pret A Manger
Pros
- Nice pay - Great perks and incentives. This includes weekly pay, possible bonuses and great discounts. - Excellent food options
Cons
- They expect perfection - High stress levels when understaffed (due to level of perfection desired) - Very little to no leniency on rules
Advice to Management
Try not to make the employees feel like just workers. Have chats with them or throw compliments instead of test them every time you see them.
