Pros

Great path setup, Lovely culture that supports you. They work on preparing you for the job world. Great attitudes. Great leaders.

Cons

No complaints except due to the age it attracts, the conversion rate is high so pay stays at minimum wage usually before tips.

Incredibly supportive coworkers Free drinks! Flexibility Positive work environment Decent pay for a barista position

Having to stand outside in the wind, rain, sun, heat, etc to take orders Very fast paced, can be super exhausting Having to endure incredibly rude customers - no different from any other customer service job though

Pros

Super fun place to work. Once you get the hang of it, its easy, and enjoyable to not only make drinks, but to interact with custies and develop real relationships with people. Plus, the pay is great for a barista gig. And you get freebies on the clock!

Cons

Possible early hours, and late nights. Our shop opens at 5am, which can be tough if you arent used to it. Lots of cleaning and machine maintenance, and sometimes spending a lot of time outside taking orders.
