Pros

Its a great place to work because it is extremely flexible, the benefits are unheard of for part time work, and it is a fun environment. If you are looking for a great job during a transitional period in your life - this is one of the best options around!

Cons

I wouldn't say a retail position is a great long term job. It can be tedious at times.

Pros

Starbucks is a decent place to work if you're going to school, can only work about 20 hours a week, and need health insurance. Free drinks when you work and a free pound of coffee a week! Get to meet a lot of really cool people... and some not-so-cool people.

Cons

Crabby customers. Ridiculous, loud, and messy teenagers. Lines to the door when there are only 2 people scheduled to work. Having no manager for a month and (being a shift supervisor) having to run the store pretty much on your own without getting the monetary compensation for it. Upper management often neglects to praise stores for work well done and always focuses on whether or not your store made more money that week than the year before.
