Pros

Free Coffee 10-20$ of Tips

Cons

Dutch Bros markets themselves as a happy and customer orientated company, however this is far from the truth. After working there for three months, I did not see a single person wash their hands...even after taking trash out to the filthy dumpsters. They will advertise positions as full time, but in reality you will never see anything over 20 hours. This company is constantly hiring because the working conditions are extremely exploitative leading to a high turn over rate. You will NOT get any tips during training, and they do NOT give you breaks. You will get your schedule 2 days prior and they do not review your availability. They will tell you it is YOUR responsibility to get your shifts covered.
