Would far rather they finally announced an IPO and let us all cash out

****s will be ****s!BrewDog faces staff backlash after dropping real living wage pledge
New workers now hired on legal minimum wage and pay frozen for London bar staff amid trading losseswww.theguardian.com
How very "Punk" of them...
Their product and controversy aside, the business seems a bit of a mess these days. They have flip-flopped on franchises a few times in Europe now; it seems they now prefer to own their bars themselves...again. They have become so mainstream that many of the original people who supported and grew them have deserted. Part of the appeal was thier bars had a good range of guest beers but a company policy that guest beers cannot be sold cheaper than the Brewdog equivalent has severely hampered this. Expansion into untapped markets seems the way they want to continue to grow. I keep my fingers crossed for an IPO or a takeover so I can cash out.Shit for new staff but 4.5% pay rise for existing. What’s everyone else’s pay rises been like recently ?
Given it’s a loss making business, next step will be job losses I guess
They should be raking the cash in, their beers are everywhere and always well stocked too. The marketing is excellent and I know several people who prefer Punk over almost anything else. I know there has been an increasing amount of bad publicity but they should shrug that off.Their product and controversy aside, the business seems a bit of a mess these days.

But utterly lacking in atmosphere, so nopeindustrial-chic with sprinkles of quirk. just barely better drinking environment than a football stadium, due to seats.
