Pros

Caribou offers great perks to coffee lovers like a free drink when you work and free coffee beans. Forming relationships with regular customers is rewarding.

Cons

The company doesn't seem to appreciate its employees, particularly in busy stores. There is no enforcement of breaks, sometimes you aren't even able to go to the bathroom because staffing is so short.
