Positive Outlook
I worked at Pret A Manger full-time for more than 6 years
Pros
Free food. Pay isn't bad.
Cons
upper management thinks they are better than everyone else. They spend (waste) lots of money on dinners for themselves and "leadership conferences" that are really just excuses to party in Orlando or Vegas. "Business" trips to Boston and Chicago are really expensed vacations for their families. The Brits have taken over NYC. Pret has brought over many managers and leaders form the UK and 'beheaded' many of the US employees...
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.
