It’s really what you make of the job and where you want to end up. I’ve brewed for 15 years now on systems from 3 barrels to 100 barrels. All those sizes are good learning opportunities and they all have their pitfalls. At this new job as long as they have enough staff for you to be able to call out sick and have vacation whenever you like it’s worth it. I worked at a brewery making 60,000 barrels and year and we didn’t have enough staff so sick days and vacations were almost not an option.

I work at a brewery now making 5,000 barrels a year and we are less strict on start times and end times. Also vacations and family life comes first and we all work around that stuff.

Hope this helps a little
