Starbucks reviews

it was my experience that the hiring process for starbucks was almost impossible. When i first got my application they told me the best thing to do was to photocopy it and then just spread it around, so i put in applications at every single starbucks in my whole town and out of like 12 different applications it took more than a month before i even got 1 responce back, and then two more weeks before i got an interview and then another month before they even let me know i had the job. It was just compleatly frusturating and just totally rediculous so be warned if your in need of a job fast dont count on starbucks cause it wont happen...

Customer service at its worst with tips that do not make up for it! Arrogance of new management or outside hires -- most come in and after a business degree and managing a few other stores, think it will be like that.. WRONG! We are 'partners' for a reason. A barista works hard mopping the floor and dealing with ridiculous customers... but just because the manager 'supervises' doesn't mean they do not have to do the same 'demeaning' or dirty work-- and doesn't mean they are above the standards of Starbucks. An arrogant or condescending outside hire will often come in acting as such, yet because of Starbucks' true loyalty to all 'partners,' they will be gone immediately if they challenge this-- compliments of the 'stupid' baristas like me who, very often, know much, much more about the inner workings of such a complicated company.... ......
