Pros
Working in the craft beer and beverage industry is a huge plus. SBS works primarily with craft breweries, but also supports distilleries, wineries, cideries, and other craft beverage producers. That focus makes the work interesting and meaningful if you care about the industry and enjoy supporting independent businesses.
There is strong growth potential and a lot of opportunity to take ownership of your work. Team members are trusted to contribute ideas, improve processes, and grow with the company as it continues to expand.
Leadership is supportive and genuinely cares about the team. Management is open to feedback and positive change, and there is a clear sense that everyone is working toward building something ambitious and long-term.
The company also invests in coaching and professional development resources, which helps people grow both professionally and personally. Team retreats and in-person events are another highlight and help strengthen relationships across what is otherwise a remote team.
SBS is also very tech-forward. The company embraces new tools and technology and is always looking for ways to improve operations and stay at the forefront of the industry.
Overall, it’s a great environment for people who enjoy learning, solving problems, and being part of a mission-driven company that’s helping shape the future of the craft beverage industry.
Kontras
Because SBS is growing quickly, systems and processes sometimes need to be built or improved on the fly. This means responsibilities and priorities can shift, which can feel stressful or disorienting.
For some people this environment is exciting and full of opportunity, but for others it can feel disruptive as priorities evolve. That’s the tradeoff that often comes with working at a fast-moving, growing company versus a more steady role at a larger organization.
