I'm sharing this review to highlight Atrium's hiring practices so other applicants can make…read moreinformed decisions. Just a couple weeks ago, a candidate I know was brought on as a trainee with explicit assurances from management that, once training was completed, she would move into a regular barista position. Trusting that commitment, she left her previous job -- after giving proper notice -- and accepted the temporary pay cut that comes with a trainee role; as trainees at Atrium earn a lower hourly wage than regular staff and are excluded from tip sharing, meaning the on-shift barista receives 100% of the tips. Throughout the entire training period, she consistently received positive feedback and was never told of any performance concerns. But the day after completing the two-week training program, she was simply removed from the schedule with zero notice and no explanation. Only after reaching out to the scheduling manager did she learn that the shop supposedly "wasn't busy enough" to keep her on. Such a sudden decline in business over such a short period seems highly questionable, given that just two weeks earlier there was reportedly enough demand to justify hiring additional staff. It also appears more than coincidental that the day she was pulled from the schedule was the same day her hourly wage was set to increase and she would have become eligible for tip sharing. And despite claiming they couldn't justify bringing her on regular staff, Atrium continues to actively advertise open positions. This pattern suggests Atrium may routinely employ "trainees," benefiting from paying a lower hourly rate and allowing regular staff to keep 100% of tips, without any real intention of offering trainees a permanent position. This experience was exceptionally disappointing and felt deliberately misleading. Now, just weeks before Christmas she is left without any employment. Recognizing that Texas is an "at-will" employment state does not make this kind of treatment right. I just wanted other applicants to be aware before making major decisions based on management's word.

I was curious to see what coffee shops lurked in this part of Texas, as I was not expecting much…read moregiven how remote this area is, and a lot of the local military population can drink 7-Eleven coffee and be just fine. This place's latte art caught my attention because that is definitely one of the crafts that distinguishes a coffee place, blurring the line between second and third-wave, in my opinion. I decided to give this place a try as it was more promising than anything I could find in the area. They had a good selection of drinks and standard drinks that you would find in any other coffee shop. I was also surprised to see that they also offered pourover options and had very good equipment, similar to the stuff I have at home in order to make it. This really piqued my interest. Unfortunately, the beans they had to make the pourovers or 4 to 6 months old, so I decided not to go with a pourover. Instead, I got a latte, which they actually did a beautiful job in terms of the latte art which told me that they knew how to properly get milk up to the right temperature and know how to layer the drink properly which gave me some hope. The latte was actually pretty good and I would actually come back for it. The people provided good service and were nice and patient . The ambiance was very basic and empty, with a lukewarm cafeteria-like design which made it feel like a first wave and was not pleasant. Other than that, I would called this a pretty solid hole in the wall that is worth checking out. 3.5/5
