Starbucks is still a great place to work

Pros

The company is still "growing up" from a process perspective, so there are great opportunities for a person to make an impact on both small and large scale.

Cons

Collaborative culture sometimes results in gridlock - not always clear who has the right to make a decision. It is easy for an individual to derail the work of a group with an innocent (or not so innocent) comment to the right person.
