Pros

Very welcoming environment to new hires. Clear efforts made to improve processes as the new store was finding its footing. Training was clear and wasn't thrown into the deep end before proper teaching. Great environment to work at overall with good pay for the work required. Flexible scheduling and very kind, understanding management!

Cons

Supply issues - needed a better system for ordering new items and restocking basic items. Usually only done by a manager, which meant if a manager wasn't on shift the issue may not be dealt with promptly. Frequently had to improvise with sizes/cups or take basic items off the menu (not just seasonal) due to missing syrups, powders, grounds, etc.

Pros

Distance from home is short.

Cons

Everything about this place. You end up working off the clock just make sure the work gets done because you will never get help from anyone. Your managers sit on their bums all day or just walk around judging the people doing real work. The just their bonuses. Yes, while you work for free for your own sanity if not being buried in product you don’t have time to manage otherwise.
