For a high schooler, it isn’t bad! I worked there as a teenager and loved it. I did not love it when I returned after college. Compared to other fast food places, it’s pretty nice and you leave smelling like coffee instead of fries which personally was a big thing for me lol. Good luck!

I got a second job at the bux for health insurance and I loved it pre pandemic. There was a buzz about the cafe and the customers were so nice and I actually become good friends with a lot of them. Post pandemic is obvious that corporate is trying to cut costs to put the money they lost of the last year back in their pockets.

It definitely depends on who you ask! Hahaha but in my experience it has been mostly great.

The team you get and the team dynamic definitely plays a strong part in whether or not it’s enjoyable to work, but it’s a great experience to have, in my opinion.

I will add though, that if you start working in a restaurant as a host, eventually you can become a server and you will probably make 2x what you make at Starbucks.

I just started working at Starbucks recently. It’s honestly been a ton of fun and my coworkers are amazing, but I do sometimes hear horror stories about other locations. It can be a really, really great experience, but if you end up with a shit store it’s probably not worth it.

If you like fast paced and your shift leads and co workers are good and fun then yes

It honestly depends on the crew and manager

Free Spotify, they pretty much pay for college if you use the program (which I do if you want information on that), chance for growth not just in the retail company but internationally, I know for most younger people the insurance doesn’t seem a big deal but it is too and it’s for part time and full time employees, I’ve had government benefits and benefits from a top 5 airline and these are better so far.
I will not sugar coat it though. You are expected to hold the brand motto of making a third safe space for all people, thinking the best before judging people, and giving them a chance to return to safe when they go too far. It’s going to be a job not a fun and free way of collecting a paycheck while just goofing off like most of my thankfully former coworkers here thought, and if your management in your region is horrible it will not get better quickly. Management seems to be my biggest issue, in that it’s not held to a proper standard across the board.
But it is a good company to work for, and I’ve worked for a lot of industries. I do recommend it to friends, and strangers alike. The college program is honestly one of the best for me, but that depends on your learning methods and degree sought.

It’s descent. As a 17 year old working part time, you want about 12-16 hours to 1) have enough money and 2) not feel over worked. Depending on where you live, you ask for 4 hour shifts (which is not bad)

no

Yeah if it’s a part time high school job I suppose, but not if you’re doing it to make a living
