Pros

Wonderful people! The company if very passionate about their customers and their standards for cleanliness, freshness, and customer service go above and beyond! You go through extensive training to be knowledgeable about the drinks and the coffee that you're selling. Starbucks definitly takes the time to make sure you're happy and that you know what's expected of you and how to deliver legendary customer satisfaction.

Cons

Starbucks isn't for everyone. It is a fast-paced atmosphere, and in order to give the best service you need to be alert and able to move fast. This job isn't an "easy" "sit-around" kind of job. Also, how well tips you get really depends on the neighborhood your store is in. My store unfortunatly only gets between $0.50 and 1 dollar per hour weekly. But there are several stores around me that make more around $2 per hour.
