Will Starbucks rehire me with a misdemeanor on my record?(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by _dreamsofthedead_
Former partner here, I worked for Starbucks for two years and had to quit a couple months ago because I had to move across the country. I just got an interview for a starbucks in my new area, and they want to hire me. However, they want to do a background check. I got a misdemeanor charge recently and I'm wondering if I can get rehired with that on my record. The assistant manager said she loves me, says I have enough experience to be possibly promoted, and thinks I'll be a great fit for the store, but I'm afraid I won't get hired once the background check goes through. She's getting back to me in a few days but I'm still a little nervous I won't be rehired.

I was even listed as non-rehireable due to being young/dumb/shitty manager. I believe SMs are able to override certain things
Edit: This isn't a knock on working for Starbucks. I worked there many years and loved it. That being said..... it's Starbucks. They don't care much. It's not the FBI academy. If it's theft related then it might be another story as that could be an issue working in retail in their eyes. I'm sure lots of partners have misdemeanors. Infact I had a barista that did two years for possession of heroin prior to being hired. Again, depending on what it is you will be fine

i want to say yes but i am not sure. i got rehired a few months after being convicted for a dui but that is very different. i think it depends on the crime maybe? i wish you luck, i think having the staff like you is a good thing to have on your side

Thanks! Congrats on being rehired btw. The misdemeanor isn't too bad, it's just disorderly conduct but I also have a reckless driving charge. I didn't go to jail for either so I think I'm good.

I had one on my record when I first got hired on as a SSV you’ll be fine.

I don't have a misdemeanor I legit got wrongfully suspended and banned from my college. Starbucks still hired me. The srro made it impossible for me to continue working their because they assumed I was going to be having contact with another individual that they didn't want me near. They can't remove you from the job.
That department proceed to harrass me during any thing because they used gauridianship / conversion therapy now banned. People can never have like an offer removed you lol. No worries.
