Pros

- Amazing coworkers - Amazing coffee - Usually good store vibe - When the times are good, they are real good

Cons

- No opportunity to rise up the company ladder in any real way - Of all the employees I knew that were baristas over 3 years working there, I know only 1 barista who ever made it past the Team Lead position to become a Store Lead - Most Store Lead's and any position higher than that are hired from outside the company. It is cheaper to hire new people because the longer you work with the company the more they pay. Because of this they try to find ways to get veteran employees to leave the company and always try to keep fresh hires coming in. - If you have a bad Store Leader just leave, they will stay in their position no matter what you do. -They require employees to do more work than they are scheduled time to complete in a timely manner. -Always under staffed to try to maximize profits with a constant push to try to get employees to work harder and faster rather than supplying the store with adequate man hours. - It goes on and on...

Pros

Wonderful people to work with, no uniform, awesome culture

Cons

Literally no Manager has lasted more than a year or two there. Leadership is constantly flustered, but the staff is on point.
