Pros
-High school students would think this was a good place to work because it's a very fun environment and you get to meet a lot of great people. -The training is excellent and the existing partners are very dedicated to always accommodating the customer.
Cons
-The Starbucks I worked at was completely understaffed, so I was a full time college student working 40+ hours per week at the highest volumed store in NJ. Eventually I got burnt out because I asked for days off and it was impossible because I was the only one who could work at certain hours. If the Starbucks is understaffed, be prepared to take on a full load of hectic work. -The pay is not very good, at least where I worked. I got started out at 7.50 an hour and after 6 months I got a raise to 8.02 exactly. So if you need benefits, your paycheck will be pretty low and pretty disappointing. -The tips were actually not bad. They split them evenly, but you'd be surprised at how many people tip and how much it adds up. The more hours you work over the other partners means more tips.
