Pros

Great customer loyalty Baristas are great

Cons

High expectations, high standards, high energy. Low base pay- other cafes pay $3-$4 more per hour MORE and retain their baristas longer than Philz. High turn over rate. No incentive to do better except for managers keeping motivation. No culture building events, picnics, nothing. No employee outreach.
