- 3.0Aug 10, 2023Store Manager/StarbucksCurrent Employee
Pros
There is plenty of opportunity to move up within the company. I started out as a cashier for Market Street and was intending on leaving the company to return to work as a barista during the pandemic when they offered me competitive pay to remain with the company as a barista for the Starbucks department. Within a year, I was promoted to Team Lead. I moved cities and the transfer process was very easy. The circumstances surrounding the department when I arrived at my new location allowed me to move up to management, also in less than a year of working for this location. At the time of writing this, I've been employed for about 3.5 years, with no prior experience in management, but with 3 years of prior barista experience. Market Street has a great team environment that has allowed me to build great relationships in a city where I knew no one and everyone, even upper management have shown amazing support for their team members.
Cons
Lean scheduling. Department managers are constantly pushed to do more with less. This has made it difficult to provide my team members with the quality training as I've had to not only work the department, but also train new team members simultaneously. This is not a job for anyone, entry-level or experienced, without a good work ethic. I've consistently had to prioritize the business over pursuing my personal goals and have missed out on several opportunities to take time off to visit family. In addition, although they advertise competitive pay, this particular department pays their baristas less than corporate Starbucks rates, leading to low team member retention and quick burnout.
- 4.0Sep 17, 2023CookCurrent Employee
Pros
They have flexible schedules and you can request off frequently. I im a cool in the back of the Deli/Hot-bar so I don’t have to deal with customers. Job is relatively easy but can be demanding at times.
Cons
Can be very stingy with raises, management feels more fair than other places I’ve worked but a too loose. Hard to find people to work in deli which can cause u to have to work other positions other than the one you were hired for.

- 2.0Jul 1, 2023Overnight StockerCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearAbilene, TX
Pros
Night stocking is a simple and easy job, they let you listen to music and your coworkers are very relatable and friendly. Customers don’t bother you often and if you get done early you can go home early sometimes. Benefits are okay.
Cons
Always short handed: somehow the store can’t keep people from any department so night crew is left to pick up their work. Night crew always short staffed as well. Upper management- too many grocery managers and expect a lot from understaffed crew. Go home when work is done is a requirement, staying late is a common occurrence.
