It's all about the coffee

Pros

The people. Overall, partners are bright, committed and enjoyable to work with. The coffee is great and there are espresso machines on every floor at corporate. Commitment to customers, employees, and the community.

Cons

As is the case in many retail environments, challenges with technical systems and infrastructure. Benefits and pay are average, but not great.

Pros

Benefits, flexible schedule, FREE coffee

Cons

Very few opportunities for store managers to move higher or laterally without willing to make a move to Seattle. Regional Offices and support positions are few and far between. Become a store manager and prepare yourself to not be treated with the same respect and dignity we promise our employees that work for us in the stores.

Pros

It used to be about the partners. The coffee is decent. Store Management rocks. Howard Schultz. Flexible work hours. High expectations. Naked Juice. Many locations. Great for students and people with second jobs. Get to meet lots of great people.

Cons

District Managers are useless. Some don't support partners. You have to really need to kiss some toosh to get somewhere. Results are useless. Can not trust your fellow teammates. McDonald's like atmosphere. Breakfast sandwiches. Getting up at 3am to open your store. Getting a call at 4am because someone didn't show up.
