Starbucks reviews

It's just a typical corporate job where upper management claims we're all about making the world a better place and all that nonsense. Honestly, Starbucks is somewhat off their rocker. I believe I'm hard work and I possess an incredible work ethic, and for me to say that Starbucks massively understaffs its stores is out of character - but they do. Ever wonder why your Starbucks experience is crappy? I could go on and on.

Overworked, understaffed. Expectations for baristas, shifts, and store managers is unrealistic. The pay isn't good. Once you become a Store Manager, very little development opportunities. Lots of pressure is given on the store-level employees, and upper management is out of touch with what it takes to run a clean, well-run, community-impacting store. DM's pick their favorites and the rest of the Store Management team is overlooked. Upper management is almost exclusively outsourced. You may get that one DM who "once was a barista" but generally they were friends with someone else who was a DM from their previous employer, making it hard to move up.
