Pros

• Free drinks. • My coworkers are some of my best friends.

Cons

• got a series of emails asking me, a part-time employee earning just above louisiana minimum wage, to sign a petition AGAINST raising minimum wage? • Corporate is miserably bad at making decisions that in any way positively affect the company. They are constantly changing the menu and introducing new items that they force every store to buy in bulk, which then flop immediately. • Corporate does not care about its baristas. • Do not expect to work full time. I would consistently be scheduled 39 hours a week, every week, just because corporate insisted on no full-time employees. • Very little consistency between stores & very little oversight. • AVOID St. Tammany Parish Hospital location at all costs.
