Starbucks reviews

My store manager had a lack of experience in the particular field. He lacked knowledge and we often had to contact the regional manager for information.

Pay: if calculated using the ACTUAL amount of hours worked, salary is just a few dollars more than a shift supervisor. Be prepared to be on call 4am-12pm daily , work on your days off, and lose all sense of the term 'work-life balance'. There is none, and there will never be one if you truly put in what it takes to make your store succeed. Communication: be prepared for NUMEROUS time wasting text/calls/emails that drag on to communicate important as well as unimportant details which can and will change. Benefits: the benefits package is decent, but be prepared to have your health deteriorate substantially. During the years I have committed to my job, I have numerous conditions brought on from the negativity and stress. ( Mind you, I've worked retail with other companies for a total of 15 years) Respect: I have had a few DMs walk into my location and say some horrifying things to my team, publicly. Everything from their looks, smile ( seriously?!) , medical conditions, etc were an "opportunity". I've had conversations communicating the effect the tone and delivery of the coaching conversations have on morale and all I got in return was increased negativity.
