Starbucks Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I love the company. What company offers so many benefits, even as a part time employee. I started as a barista and was promoted really quickly. The atmosphere, customer service from corporate is awesome."

"I have worked for Starbucks for 6 years and never had terrible supervisor until the last supervisor was not getting along with my communication ability with deafness. She wasn't fond the way I show my experiences. I loved working for Starbucks as it is family values and life values."

"Been working for Starbucks for just over 2 years as a barista. The benefits are great... the pay not so much. The job duties aren't difficult, provided you can deal with customers who have overwhelming senses of entitlement."

"Interesting gig. Great coffee. Lots of HTML CSS, and research. Not a lot of actual programming."

"I've worked for Starbucks for just under nine years. It is a company which strives hard to provide customer satisfaction, but cuts corners in terms of back of house technology. The company values sales and managers, but needs a great deal of investment in the HR infrastructure and support side."

"I have worked for Starbucks for last four months. They have excellent customer service and quality goods. I have learned to move on a faster pace and provide great service throughout my shifts. I have consistently asked for more work and knowledge about coffee to improve my skills and ability to sell our products."

"I have worked for Starbucks 2 times. Once in 2004 as a manager and then again now as a shift supervisor. The company is great as to how they treat their employees. However the compensation is way too low and you can't have any lifestyle, especially in Vancouver, with this low compensation."

"I have only worked at Starbucks for a couple of months and still feel it is a great place to work. I get along with all my co-workers and manager. The job itself gets easier as you learn the different stations, which seem to be stressful in the beginning but after a short time you get the hang of it and see how much more you can do for everyone in the store, even just taking time to make someone's day."

"It's a good job to get started in the workplace,but once you are there, it's hard to get out unless you want to be a store manager and I would not wish that position on anyone."

"I found Starbucks to be a company with great benefits but extremely low pay."

"I have been with the company for 9 months and overall I'm very happy with my experience there. Starbucks has made a coffee snob out of me! Starbucks is a very good environment to help others grow in terms of customer service and people skills. I've also made many wonderful friends at this job."

"Great company, great benefits, great atmosphere!I loved this job!"

"Strong company with great benefits and great work environment. I worked there for 7 months and enjoyed my time there. Very fun and exciting to be in a workplace where you are really focused on customer service. The company is innovative and always coming out with new ideas."

"It was a great experience during my college years but you are underpaid for the stress this job can cause. The line is never ending and people can be fairly rude in the mornings. It is also nearly impossible to live up to the standards of Starbucks at all times. But overall it was the best job I have ever had."
