Starbucks reviews

low pay, food service, changing schedules

My district specifically is incredibly understaffed, requiring long hours on the floor of being short staffed. Starbucks expects a lot out of their partners but doesn't always make it worth our while. They are currently asking for a 2 yr commitment, and talk about not hiring just "bodies" but good people... but they aren't really offering enough $ to get the quality of people they want. ESPECIALLY for shift supervisors. Incredibly overworked and underpaid. They basically do the the job of the manager (save scheduling) since the Assistant manager position was virtually eliminated at a pay rate only nominally above that of baristas. Starbucks culture has changed significantly in the last 5-7 years, shorting the partner and creating a dissatisfied and tired partner culture (which has lead to significant employee turnover).
