Current Employee – been working at Starbucks full-time

Pros – Great working atmosphere. The position offers the opportunity to better connect with partners and to better share the Starbucks Experience with those partners and customers.

Cons – Sometimes the position can cause a higher level of stress to appear. The stress can be caused by the strong emphasis to extend the Starbucks brand even though store staffing might be at a minimal; which makes things a little more difficult.

Former Employee – worked at Starbucks part-time for more than 7 years

Pros – Coworkers, free coffee, benefits package (401k, medical, vision, dental, stock options).

Cons – Upper management, limited opportunity for advancement.

Advice to Senior Management – Promote from within. There is nothing more infuriating than having an outside hire that cant effectively run a shift, remember drink recipes, or man the espresso bar during peak business hours. I know several quality employees who left due to empty promises of promotion, only to see externals brought in as management.

Current Employee – been working at Starbucks part-time for less than a year

Pros – I love the employee perks such as a free pound of coffee every week, free drinks while on shift, and the laid back atmosphere. Co-partners are mostly college students. Starbucks also has incredibly high standards for sanitation and cleanliness.

Cons – Pay starts out at minimum wage, you also don't get tips until you have worked two weeks.
