Not the same Dutch Bros - Marketing Dutch Bros. Employee Review

For those who have been with the company since before the public offering, it has been a slow, down-hill struggle to try and retain that special sauce that was our Culture. They continue using "our culture" as an amazing hiring tool and PR headline but in reality, that culture is dead. At the end of the day, Dutch is now controlled by the shareholders and decisions are not being made in the interest of their employees or the "culture." Outside of C-Suite Members, the stock-share programs are deceiving and not guaranteed. You are no longer a person but just a number on a spreadsheet that can be removed or replaced based on budget adjustments. Benefits package is pretty bad. They do match 401k which is nice. Stock Share is great if they don't decide to get rid of you before you are vested. (SEVERAL PEOPLE MET THIS FATE) Healthcare is absolutely atrocious if you have any sort of family. Plan on paying $1k+ out of pocket monthly if you are trying to cover your spouse and children.
