Pros

Comparable pay to other similar organizations. Employee retail discount program. Encountered one decent district manager during my tenure with Sodexo.

Cons

Lack of opportunity to promote and develop hourly associates to salaried roles of greater responsibility. Sodexo hires more from the outside rather than look within the organization for advancement opporunities. Lack of opportunity to promote managers within the organization to roles with greater responsibility. Little to no work life balance. Promote/hire in managers without the regulatory required credentials (CDM, DTR, or RD) for a Healthcare/Senior Services GM role when it is stated as a requirement on Sodexo's job posting.
