Pros

GREAT BENEFITS!! full benefits given to part-time employees who work more then 20/hr. a week. Work with some great people, made a lot of friends. Get to meet and talk with a lot of people. Never get bored cause there's always something to be done. Free Coffee. lot of company sponsored volunteer opportunities within the community

Cons

staffing cut backs can make shifts more stressful, told to do more with less. Affects new employees who do not get the coaching time they need and deserve. This is a company not a mom and pop shop so dollars win out over people. Management styles differ greatly from store to store from micro-managers to just plain lazy. Some were great to work for and understood what it took to do the job. Starting pay is weak. Constant new product to push, track , and meet goals. i guess the biggest downfall is at one time this was a company i was proud to work for. Changes over the years have made it a less rewarding place to work.

Pros

I felt loved and needed and appreciated until i made a small mistake where my well intended actions left me wondering and doubting the corporations support of a long term, loyal and committed employee, An employee whom the day to day starbucks customers cared more about losing than the actual corporation.

Cons

constant change, criticism, rules, gross drinks, all for what.

constant raising of the bar...strenuous multiple tasks....exhausting.....little positive feedback or celebration of successes.....new systems designed to replace current management model with a cheaper and more micro-managed one...very poor real communication from upper management
