Pros

-free coffee -chance to meet some cool people -knowledge available if you know where to look -great benefits package, one of the best health insurances I've ever had

Cons

-losing all its heart, its not about community connections and personality anymore -severe lack of leadership and communication from upper management to the stores -people are put into management positions with little to no training -hypocritical attitudes towards customers and "community building" (they claim thats what they're all about, but in practice we're basically told customers are just a number)

Pros

Free drink but only one per shift

Cons

Upper management absolutely awful and out of touch. DM’s and DO’s do not care about your well being. Preach this whole attitude of togetherness but it’s fake and they only care about sales and numbers. This company has gone downhill fast and I am actively job hunting.
