Pros

Every hour is different so if you are someone who like a bit a variety throughout the day it is really nice. Generally speaking, all the employees are really great people who come from all walks of life, I have had many great conversations.

Cons

It gets really busy and you are not paid any more/benefit when the store is hectic. I thought it was weird how they will generally tell you the sales for the day. The crew members get nothing, even if the store was putting up 130,000 for seven days straight.

Pros

This company really does care about its employees. There's a reason why people make a career out of their time here. It is the most fun job I've ever had. They hire amazing, hardworking people with great personalities. Management is always willing to help. Theres fun tastings of new products all the time. Customers are generally always in a good mood. The job is physically demanding, but I am in the best shape of my life lol. They schedule you to change what you're doing every hour, so the 8-hour day goes by fast.

Cons

They can definitely play favorites. The same people get the shifts that they want, and when you first start, you can get stuck closing for quite some time.
