    Starbucks Barista in Palmdale, CA:   (Current Employee)

    Pros

    Lots of perks. Free pound of coffee a week, free drinks, 30% off retail (more during holiday season). Fun environment, for the most part. Competitive pay, for being a retail job

    Cons

    Not much emphasis on career development. Pay raises are based almost entirely off of seniority, as opposed to merit. Very strange hours sometimes.

    Advice to Senior Management

    Better communication and more emphasis on career development
