Starbucks reviews

corporate culture based on relationships & personal feelings more than results, low pay (starting & merit increases), constantly shifting priorities (do this and then two weeks later here's a new priority), lack of support, asking questions is perceived as being negative, constant change in leadership (I had 6 bosses in less than 5 years), feedback not provided in a consistent and fair manner company is now stressing holding people accountable which means firing more people but the candidate flow of applicants to replace those fired is so poor because of uncompetitive pay

The pay compensation hasn't been the best. Last year the blanket increase was 2% and that does not cover cost of living increases. I understand that the companys sales aren't the best at the moment, but there has been some cannibalization. Also, it seems like we are penalized to be in accordance with the amount of hours that we are allowed to have managers and shifts on the floor, even though you are managing costs and bringing more than targeted amount to the bottom line.
