Pros

Starbucks has a strong corporate social responsibility message. Total compensation has been solid. They are attempting as a company to get back to the reasons that made them strong in the beginning.

Cons

For a company that began its growth as a company with a "soul", the economic downturn has caused them to lose that "soul". Decisions are made that appear to be a desperate reaction to both the economy and the competition.

Pros

The flexibility in hours and the ability to work around school schedules. They also offer pretty good benefits for part time people as well as full timer employees, which is nice. If you enjoy coffee, it is also a great environemtn because you get unlimited amounts while on the clock and great discounts even when you are not working.

Cons

The early hours, and more recently the cutting of labor. There is the same amount of stuff to get done, but with half the amount of staff as of lately. The pay is not great for the skill set and amount of knowledge that has to be mastered for the job.
