Pros

Starbucks is a great company. They are very good at communication and giving the reasons behind their actions. Benefits are awesome compared to any other part time job you will find. If you can find some good people to work with, this will be a fun part-time job with a few benefits like a free pound of coffee every week, free drinks, and discounts on goods. You also get to know the people in your community, which can be very interesting.

Cons

They have been cutting hours lately due to the recession. It is hard to get 32 hours, let alone 40. If you work with people you don't get along with, work can be depressing. If you don't drink coffee, you will have to work to find something good to drink.

Pros

The Great atmosphere! Lots of Free coffee! Usually there are some Fun co-workers! There can be Networking opportunities! They give you a chance to Give back to community and be more involved in local happenings! Lots of freedom to express individual character! Very comfortable dress code! Great tips at the busy locations!

Cons

Busy work when there are no customers. Lots of cleaning to do. Mean/impatient/rude customers that have not had thier caffiene yet and think their coffee should be done instantly. Newer machines placed in store makes the job of making coffee too automated, feel like a robot pushing buttons. I prefer the old machines that made coffee making more of an art.
