"For the most part, this is a great company, There is freedom to go to school, and create your own schedule. Be prepared to work hard because people take their coffee very seriously. Also be prepared that there are some very rude customers, but that's not the company's fault. That's just the custumer's disposition."
What don't you like about working at Starbucks?
"Some of the coworkers are very young and irresponsible, they call in sick a lot. Manager gets irritated if there is a real emergency and talks down to employees if he/she needs to take an unscheduled day off. The new shift supervisors have let the title go to their heads and become little overbearing monsters."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"I would offer scholarships/reimbursement for college students for all majors/schools."
