Pros

Making Starbucks drinks as a barista was fun

Cons

Huge disconnect between management and lower employees. They treat all employees like they are thieves, they consider everyone bad apples rather than an exception to the genuinely sincere employees who want to do a good job. This is taught to management from corporate. Creates a them v's us mentality that is detrimental to the overall morale of the stores.

Pros

-Rotating Weekends (Work Sat/Off Sun then Off Sat/Work Sun) -Flexible Scheduling

Cons

-You are expected to do a lot of work for very little pay -Being promoted is extremely unlikely and any wage increases is purely for inflation, not because they think you deserve it. -If you do not fight for higher wages they will not give it (I knew someone who has worked full-time in the deli for years longer than I, but somehow he made less than me) - Deli Management is very clique like, the assistant store manager has many complaints filed against him. -Expected to work holidays, no holiday pay or overtime (ever)
