Pros

It was a fun first job that helps build good people skills, leadership skills, and time management. I worked there through high school and college and made some great friends there.

Cons

Everything is very automated, so you don't build the same type of barista skills as you would at an independent coffee shop. Often they wouldn't staff extra for deal days which made them very hectic.

Pros

Free drink but only one per shift

Cons

Upper management absolutely awful and out of touch. DM’s and DO’s do not care about your well being. Preach this whole attitude of togetherness but it’s fake and they only care about sales and numbers. This company has gone downhill fast and I am actively job hunting.
