UPDATE November 2024
Pret opened their first shop in India mid 2023 and as of November 2024 have already 12 (often small) franchises. Pret are tasked by their owners to double in size worldwide by 2026. And there is already severe bullying and hostile work environment in the newly 2023 opened Pret A Manger INDIA — Khan Market, Delhi in particular.
Staff are also instructed to BUY food from the store and leave POSITIVE reviews on zomato .com as the store has many negative reviews. The post includes secretly recorded audio evidence of the bullying and my interview with the victim:
Pret Khan Market, Delhi toxic workplace culture.

I worked at Pret A Manger and survived systemic workplace bullying during bereavement that involved HR, the top leadership, HQ and even the now โretiredโ former CEO Clive Schlee. Schlee has been appointed CEO of itsu in 2024 by Julian Metcalfe who gave him the CEO spot at Pret many years ago.
I declined 4 settlement offers if I am silent about my ordeal. But I rather speak out to help others. For an overview of important blog entries of my experience with Pret, please visit โMy Ordeal with Pret A Mangerโ. The little arrow to the right next to each heading will lead directly to the post.
An incomplete list on what other Pret staff say about Pret’s bullying environment: Caught in the Act Bullying at Pret and What shop MANAGERS & HQ staff say about Pret incl. CEO Pano Christou.
I tell my story for the first time verbally in below audio player interview on a podcast by The Adam Paradox, and wrote two articles in the Scottish Left Review as well as mentioned by the BBC.
