Pros

Since starting from an entry level position, they taught me everything I know about the beer industry. I have met many interesting, hard-working and fun-loving people, in addition to participating in many awesome FP-sponsored events. One of my favorite things about working here is that is a value-driven company, looking for innovative ways of brewing, transporting and marketing their beer. They really take care of their employees with so many benefits and at the same time expect more than a job where you punch-in and out. In addition to the brewery side of things, their restaurants are all sooo good. Mill Valley Beer Works, the S.F. Ferry Building tasting room, Black Sands Brewery and now Fort Point Valencia are all amazing restaurants in their own right.

Cons

Because there has been a lot of growth recently, it comes with growing pains such as keeping up with labor demands and figuring out how to meet the needs of the company.

Thanks for the review! Growing pains are a true story. We're making progress though—we've added several new management roles and have some very experienced managers starting soon. We're doing some intensive manager training this fall and rolling out some initiatives to give employees more resources on and off the job. Exciting things to come!

Pros

- cool to see products in lots of places - free beer

Cons

- CEO is robotic and runs the place like a dictatorship - constant layoffs, they make rash decisions and cut workforce then find money somehow and hire up again - impossible to move up within company - owners don’t understand the industry and upset off their distributors - terribly mismanaged and financially disastrous - lack of diversity
