Pros

Philz has (comparatively) competitive pay and seems to hire great people

Cons

Title says it all - the mobile app combined with in person orders made the expected rate of drink-making between 5 and 8 drinks every 5 minutes. Our store was chronically understaffed, which only made things harder. I've never been more anxious during a job, including ones with MUCH higher stakes than making sure people get their Mint Mojitos.
