Pros

You get to be yourself. I get to do what I do best everyday. The people I work with are smart, care about each other. There is a culture of caring for the customer that makes me happy to come to work every day. When people don't buy into this part of the culture, they tend to struggle. The number of people I get to meet and talk with every day is amazing.

Cons

Too much food to eat every day. The store is cold. Having to work with some Crew Members who clearly don't want to help customers, they are only in it for the pay and benefits. If you don't like customers, don't work in retail.

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.
