Starbucks – “Not the right brew for everyone”

Pros

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
