Pros

Starbucks has wonderful benefits if you work enough hours to qualify. The pay is good as well, and the work really can be meaningful. The human connections are something you cannot take for granted. I loved the company when I started.

Cons

The baristas are, unfortunately, treated as bottom barrel. Not by store managers, but corporate. Policies put in place recently do not cater to the employees. Unfortunately, the company would prefer baristas to suffer if it means getting a drink out faster.
