Not bad for barista work in Ithaca

Pros

Decent tips if you work in the cafe or tavern, and one of the better places to learn about espresso on the job – a lot of other places in town (besides Gimme Coffee) don't really take the time to properly train their baristas.

Cons

Ownership likes to micromanage and are dismissive of staff. I saw multiple failed attempts to unionize in the 3 years I worked there but these failed due to successful union busting efforts.

Pros

Meet interesting people and learn some skills

Cons

Owners take repeated vacations while workers don't receive raises even after years. My raise was when the minimum wage was increased for new york.
