      Pros

      It's a really well-performing company especially in this economy. The people are always nice,always has a smile on their face. They love their job and its evident. However, much is needed to improve their lifestyle.

      Cons

      Pay workers better. My wife has been a Barista for almost 6 years (July 2010) and she is now at $10.56 an hour. I started at Costco in a seasonal role @ $11.00 per hour. It doesn't make any sense. Her reviews have been stellar for the past 6 years and isn't being paid fairly. You cannot live on $11.00 an hour. Starbucks needs to realize this.

      Pros

      Great employees, great customers, free coffee. Free coffee is always a plus. Everyone for the most part helps each other out.

      Cons

      There are many instances where people get promoted who shouldn't get promoted and senior management treats lower level employees as if they don't have any feelings.

      Pros

      Well developed strategic plans clearly directed from upper management. This is good in the sense that you have clear expectations and management will ensure you stay on track, or replace you.

      Cons

      Often times too many competing and conflicting priorities. Starbucks is efficiant and puts too much stress on managers to produce sales targets.
