Pros

Growing company with strong values and an a great mission. Excellent team members from the Barista to the home office team. Brand is growing both in reputation and as a great place to work.

Cons

Like all growing companies Philz is experiencing some slight growing pains. Company's biggest challenge in the coming year that it will need to focus on retaining top talent. Philz currently lacks any kind long term employee investment. No stock options. 401K, profit sharing and benefits that are not as competitive as other companies.
