Toxic &hostile culture

Pros

They pay good and the brand supports vets and supports flexible PTO

Cons

Extremely disorganized, founder-lead company that does not empower employees to make decisions. Everything has to be run through the founders and people are scared to give honest feedback due to the fear-based culture and multiple rounds of layoffs. Most legacy employees are not accepting of new hires which hinders collaboration and efficiency.

Pros

I learned a lot about coffee, the industry & working with a few amazing individuals.

Cons

Favoritism & leadership that can’t lead. Talent Management/Retention is non existent. Don’t expect to grow outside your role, as management prefers to hire externally. Regular layoffs & high employee turnover.
