    At a good job you should still get paid if you’re scheduled to work but can’t due to sickness. Your contract should say how many sick days you can take each year.

    This is more than the legal minimum, which says you should only get paid if you are unwell for 4 full days. See Citizens Advice for more details.

    Starbucks Barista, October 2024

  • Best thing

    The team that I work with, the job itself is a fun and enjoyable job.

    Worst thing

    The company as a whole, managers constantly on power trips, made to feel bad if you phone in sick, always understaffed, expected to pick up the slack of others.

  • Best thing

    Some of the people are really nice and I live creating new drinks and providing good quality service

    Worst thing

    That I never get to make the drinks I always get put serving and some of the people who have worked their longer than me push me around.

    We need a major renovation as a unit

    Drive thru

    Starbucks Barista, August 2024

  • Best thing

    The best thing about the job is making new friends and learning about the process of making drinks and serving them.

    Worst thing

    The days tend to get busy easily which can get stressful, customers can also be very rude, foreign students who come into the café can be disruptive. I am usually the one, whenever on shift, to do the cleaning.

    4.5

    Starbucks Barista, February 2024

  • Best thing

    Free drinks on shift
    Good team
    They put effort into constantly trying to improve the way things run

    Worst thing

    All depends on your area managers and your franchise , head office incentivise managers to reduce labour, cut expenses and overall don’t seem to care about how the store runs/feels unless it contributes to their bonus.
    The amount of questions you have to ask at the till is ridiculous
    Customers often treat you with disrespect and hostility over things which are outside of your control. I often am made to feel stupid either by head office or customers every shift .

    Starbucks Assistant manager, March 2023

  • Best thing

    My colleagues are my favourite thing about my job :)))

    Worst thing

    Certain supervisors have favourites so you end up doing the less enjoyable jobs whenever they’re on shift if you aren’t their favourite.

    You can’t have more than 3 days sick in 3 months otherwise you get punished (even with a doctors note)

    Quite a toxic and bitchy environment.

    4.9

    Starbucks Barista, August 2022

  • Best thing

    Training, when there is time. Fellow partners. If your willing to move up they have good training opportunities. Free coffee on shift.

    Worst thing

    Under a lot of pressure in busy stores to just get drinks out, no matter how bad it’s made. I’ve worked in quieter stores and they care more about the quality of the drinks.

    5.1

    Starbucks Shift leader, March 2022

  • Best thing

    It's a fun creative job with lots of new skills. There's always people around.

    Worst thing

    Higher ups only care about the bottom line and not about the day to day runnings or staffs quality of life. Many false promises. Will rather employ externally rather than promote from within
