Pros

-it’s a job & i count my blessings.

Cons

literally everything else. working in coffee should not feel like this. i still work in coffee & i look back at my time with lamppost and am flabbergasted at how long i stayed & what i endured, i wrote out a detailed review but it keeps getting flagged by AI for being “negative” but that was literally just mine (and many others) experience. horrible owner & managers. coworkers are great.

Pros

Coffee was good and I liked the quality.

Cons

Management was not great and did not really care about you. I still had to come into work after I had thrown up and handle food to people and management did not care.
