Pros

Coffee affinciondo and I love working with coffee addicts! As well, the training process is excellent...though sometimes the standards of baristahood are compromised when it is busy. I also love the repeat customers that come in every day who enjoy "their" Starbucks store. Some will share the most interesting personal things about themsleves. Very funny.

Cons

EARLY mornings and cleaning floors...but it comes with the territory. I also would expect to have more hours as a part time employee...even though benefits are good, it would be helpful to have more regularly scheduled hours. Last, I smell like coffee when I leave.

Pros

Benefits are good, some managers are cool about working with your school schedule.

Cons

Some managers are complete idiots that totally play favorites. Most district managers just come in and yell at you about what you're doing wrong. And they hire DMs without making them be baristas first. I got hired 2 years ago yesterday. There's a DM that was hired a month after me AS A DM. It's just stupid. Oh, and they hire stupid little teenage girls that cause more drama than any other job I've ever had.

Pros

If you love to work with people this is the job for you. You work with young people that you mentor. You also get to meat people from all over. you always learn something new.

Cons

You become dependent on coffee because you can have all you want.
