Pros

The partners are fun, often times they are the reason one goes to work. Some stores have a great community feel where your customers feel like part of an extended family.

Cons

Inadequate compensation for the amount of work the job entails. Simply impossible to have things 100% or even 75% to company standard. Constantly reminded that if something goes wrong you will be written up or terminated. Personal vendettas have held people back from moving up in the company despite their qualifications.

Pros

Starbucks is an excellent place to work. Period. The company provides comprehensive health benefits, available to both full and part-time employees, which are reasonably affordable for a manager. I did however hear from several partners who'd opted out of the health plan, citing their objections to the high pre-tax payroll deductions and co-payments. The atmosphere created by management is very supportive, both, for new employees and for experienced partners. The initial 2-week training schedule is extensive and hands-on, which enables every new employee to quickly gain comfort with the daily rigors of working in this frequently fast-paced environment. The investment options are truly exemplary. The vacation and sick day policies are also very, very fair to both full and part-time employees.

Cons

To succeed at Starbucks, one has to like people. There is constant personal interaction with the guests and with fellow partners.
