First and foremost, thanks so much for you many years of service at Pabst! During your tenure, we’re sure that you experienced some highs and lows. That said, we’re feeling pretty good that we’re experiencing some great highs as a company right now. Our new ownership has invested heavily in our people and our brands since November 2014 and we’re now starting to enjoy the payoff. In 2015, the company enjoyed 21% year over year growth while most beer companies were in single digits! We’re evaluating our family of brands and have included new products to diversify our portfolio such as Not Your Father’s Root Beer, Woodchuck Cider and Tsingtao. We’re not stopping there and we’ll continue our innovations and partnerships in 2016. Stay tuned!

Cons

When I first joined, the culture felt cool, fun, and genuinely collaborative. The coworkers were friendly, and in the San Antonio office especially, the environment was laid-back but still fast-paced and productive. It was the kind of place where people worked hard but enjoyed being part of the team. Over time, that culture has shifted significantly. There now seems to be constant chaos, with ownership lacking a clear, consistent vision for the company’s direction. The frequent restructuring and layoffs have created an ongoing sense of instability, making it feel like a high-risk environment for anyone hoping to build long-term tenure. Additionally, leadership feels increasingly disconnected from day-to-day realities. Decisions often seem reactive rather than strategic, which has made it harder to feel aligned or confident in the company’s future.
