      Starbucks is good but not great.

      Pros

      You can have all the free coffee you want. Hours were flexible. It was a relatively easy job.

      Cons

      A lot of the staff is seasonal and never becomes very experienced. The work can be extremely tedious and boring. The pay is not great. Customers sometimes take out their anger at the clerks for reasons that are beyond their control. There is a lot of corporate doublespeak: for example, the lowest paid workers are euphemistically called "sales associates." The staff meetings waste time with hollow idealism: "this is a turning-point for the company, and our success is dependent on everyone's best efforts."
