What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Ever since the pandemic started, management has stopped listening to us completely. They try to make us happy with tiny things here and there but overall it has been going down hill.

Giving propitiate raises to tenure employees based on their time with the company instead of paying every single employee the same starting base pay regardless of experience.

leading and communication with partners

Review from Sales Dept

Listening to their employees and stop acting with retribution

Leadership at store level try very hard to maintain a positive environment, but it is hard when corporate expects the world from low-wage hourly workers while continuously cutting labor and expecting no shortfalls.

Health insurance is the best.

Review from Sales Dept

Health Insurance and 401K program

Health care, despite the fact that Starbucks has been gradually scaling back on that, too. Just like our pay.

Review from Sales Dept

My college is paid for

Review from Sales Dept

Not sure what it is

Review from Sales Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Steady schedule and higher wages so it is a living wage.

Review from Sales Dept

Turnover improvement may not be an imperative task driving the company to do right by their employees, but it's the priority that's keeping employees from trusting their corporate superiors. The disconnect is palpable from both an employee and a customer perspective.

Review from Sales Dept

There are a lot of opportunities and benefits but like many other partners, I only use maybe 5% of what is offered due to my lifestyle.

Review from Sales Dept

I wish our compasation was more considering most os us are college students and schedules are really bad but we manage to do thme

Review from Sales Dept

I don't make a living wage. While it's nice that they give us stocks, and we have free Headspace and Spotify, I have to work a second part-time job on top of being full time at Starbucks, and live off of food that's being thrown away in order to make ends meet.

We all have a really close bond and are very supportive of one another.

Ultimately I think it falls on the leadership to encourage buy in and drive, as well as to establish accountability.

I could imagine that if my coworkers received pay suitable for adults, they would be more likely to act like adults.

Review from Sales Dept

Because my coworkers and I were equally abused and undervalued, we could confide in one another about the abuse.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

Management management management management management

Review from Sales Dept

My store in particular is generally understaffed for the sheer amount of business we do. It makes running a shift comfortably incredibly difficult. Because of this we've been having trouble maintaining a positive environment. When we're staffed appropriately everyone is much more comfortable.

Everyone is mostly friendly and optimistic, not much needs to change in my store

When we aren't understaffed and I can have a genuine connection with my customers and partners.

Review from Sales Dept

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

Employees are not paid appropriately. Raises are not granted based on tenure or experience. Our workload, standards and expectations are constantly increasing but no added incentive for employees in terms of wage increases or bonuses. Customers are aloud and encouraged to mistreat employees.

Review from Sales Dept

After Schultz stepped down, employees were not communicated to from corporate any more and marketing tactics became schemes fishing for more business without allowing proper labor hours to complete business tasks. One the side of social politics, they are a reactive company instead of proactive.

Review from Sales Dept

Almost everything to be honest

Review from Sales Dept

our manager is not doing her job well. the majority of supervisors and staff are not supported

Review from Sales Dept

Pronounce names right when they have to
