Pros

Well at least they pay minimum wage.... But seriously, this company is a bad representation of the DC coffee scene.

Cons

Like I said, they pay the lowest wage possible. Even if you get a promotion, which is rare, you will get paid better at another coffee shop. They have had a new manager at EACH store for a while now because they all quit. The hours are also extremely long and you don't get any more tips. Literally, you work until 11 in the summer. Also the greedy owners, Rob and Violeta, NEVER show up. When I worked at other coffee shops I was surprised that the owners actually cared to show up. They keep expanding and keep saying they are hiring, so DON'T DO IT. Every person I talked to regrets working for them and thinks they are the worst people. There are plenty of coffee shops willing to support their employees.

Pros

Great stepping stone job to get a better one, I loved my coworkers

Cons

Disorganized management, terrible pay, and there were unrealistic expectations. I felt confused and stressed out often but overall it was a good place to start out. Everyone working there was pretty young.
