Pros

most of the , leadership really did "walk the talk" about following the mission statement and guiding principles, and it trickled down to the way everybody else treated each other. It's great to work for a place where everyone is so excited about the product, even if they work in a support department that has nothing to do with coffee directly.

Cons

there was a lot of talk about "transformation" in the last 6 month, but it didn't feel very focussed. Many people wanted to know what they could do to help or change, but weren't getting good direction because leadership wasn't available, focussed upwards not downwards.

Pros

Great team environment. Great structure. Comprehensive training in all aspects of the job. Great support system by managment and plenty of opportunity for patners that wish to succeed in their carreer. the motto is to set your partner up for success. full health benefites for part time employees is a major plus along with Dental and vision. Great benefits.

Cons

physical labor, demanding hours. odd work schedule. no job security. lack of understanding with personal life issues. You semll like coffee at the end of every shift and come to a point where it's difficult to enjoy a good cup of coffee.
