Business Outlook
Pros
Before the buyout the culture was great. Yes it was sales, but the product was good and the company truly cared about the employees. There were trips for management down to Atlanta for sales and management training which always greatly benefited the store. If the company believes in you, they will help you grow your career. Even move you across the country for new opportunities. The people Teavana attracts are always great, so you work with amazing people.
Cons
It's not Teavana anymore. Starbucks bought them and a lot of great people left. Andy Mack isn't the CEO anymore, and sadly it's just not the same. Quality of the tea has also gone down, which is kind of the point of a tea shop.
