Pros

-Free pound coffee every week -Stock- bean stock. -Health benefits after 90 days. -Motivated young adults who want to be there, the culture quickly weeds out the bad fits.

Cons

-Management can rarely take two days off in a row. - Benefits are not clearly spelled out- even after being hired still not clear on what the benefits were till benefits package arrived after 90 days. - fast pace, little downtime, management still on the time clock - expected to get everything done with minimal staff and no overtime. Hard to fit the expectation of time worked-time paid

Pros

Good benefits, tips, weekly partner markout allowance, free drinks, we're kept up to date with most changes the company makes before they happen, flexible and understanding scheduling, we're allowed to pick up shifts at any starbucks location, 401k, stock options.

Cons

We're often pushed to make sales of items the customer doesn't want in order to meet quotas (ahem, Via), which can be uncomfortable for some partners. During slower months our hours can be cut drastically.

Pros

It was alright working here. The benifits are great but I don't think I would work here again. Fun enough I guess.

Cons

Well, there weren't really any cons. I guess I didn't get enough free drinks. Blah, blah, blah, ok that is it.
