Pros

Extremely friendly people, the job is fun and tips are great, you’ll meet lots of friends and interact with interesting people as you work. As a retail employee, you’ll scoop ice cream, check people out, make coffees and hot chocolate, and talk to guests. If you go the production route, you’ll be making the products for the store. You’ll learn to make fudge, caramel, how to dip chocolate, overall a very cool job. Both routes are very rewarding positions.

Cons

No cons. A great place for a young person, probably age 15-21 to work part time. Be ready for busy weekends and you’ll be all set.
