Pros

Not many pros to mention.

Cons

Everyone working there clearly hates their job. The management hate their jobs and don't know how to maintain morale or make employees stick around. Six hour closing shifts would turn into ten hour shifts regularly, working from 3 PM until sometimes 1 in the morning because the closing shifts have too many tasks to complete--and if they're completed shoddily because of time constraints, you get yelled at. You get reprimanded for staying past the end of your shift and for not getting everything done. There are no breaks to speak of if the shop is understaffed, and expect to be on your feet dealing with needy customers the entire time.

Pros

nice people to work with, and of course, doughnuts

Cons

extremely understaffed and leadership refuses to backfill while increasing expectations of shrinking teams. long-term, this is not sustainable and people will continue to leave. internal data is a mess, no confidence in outputs and requires a ton of manual calculation
