Pros

The pros at the start were freedom of wearing what we wanted and endless free coffee, but those perks were taken away and eventually a dress code and a one free drink limit were imposed

Cons

The previously mentioned perks were taken away and my former boss was not great with communication.

Pros

Flexible schedule, was great as a college job

Cons

By late 2023/early 2024 definitely started shifting away from an experience based coffee place to feeling more like all the rest

Pros

In higher volume cafes, tips can be very lucrative.

Cons

Understaffed and the rush can be very overwhelming at first. I would not recommend this job for first time baristas.
