Starbucks Baristas: The daily grind

If the starting wage for a shift is $15.24 would that make the starting wage for a barista be $12? Basing my calculations on the difference between the pay for the two positions being 27%. (self.starbucksbaristas)

i'm in florida and also worked in nj and the shift pay is a 27% difference. baristas have been starting at $12 and when the base pay goes to $15 in august shifts will be making $19 and some change

There’s closer to a 50% difference where I am
Edit: Shifts starting out make $15 and and baristas make a little over $10 starting out

pennsylvania starting barista pay is $12. it’s nationally been increased to $12 and it was like last october

I was told $10 when I asked tbh… but maybe that was outdated numbers? Idk, I don’t actually get to see what people make since I’m a barista
skieslarr 3 points 1y ago
yeah no when i started it was $10 but a month after i started it got increased, there was a corporate wide increase
Ashamed_Equal 2 points 1y ago
When did that happen? I’m at the max for baristas, so I’m out of the loop on all the raises going around (besides the one I didn’t get in January :( … definitely know about that one)
Edit: Jk, you said October, must’ve missed that part … that’s good they raised it from $10 tho!

From my understanding, Shift pay is based off of the barista pay in the area you work. So if the starting pay for your baristas is $15 (which will be the base for a lot of baristas soon), shifts will make $19.05
Edit, meant to say that you're correct that it's a 27% difference OP

Was just gonna second this. I live in a rea that made really quick jumps from $10/hr to 12 to 15 for bsristas this last year. When we jumped to 12, my ssv rate started at 15.24. Now that baristas make 15, the ssv rate starts at 19.05, but I jumped up to 20 because I was over my 2 year mark then. (Adjustment for tenure may vary, but should be pretty close.)
That should go up a bit in August for pretty much anyone who is currently a partner (in corporate/non-union stores because that changes the game).

Thank you!
I’m also wondering if someone is just getting hired today or even within the next two weeks — they will still get the pay increase to $15 for baristas and $19 for ssv’s in August, right? My understanding is that the pay for everyone working in corporate stores (non-unionized) who is not already making $15/$19 will be raised to the $15/$19.

The 15/19 situation is supposed to be the new starting rate. They sent out communication this week about additional raises on Aug 1 for those hired before 05/02/22.
Those under 2 years will be bumped 3% of either the starting rate or their current rate, whichever ends up being higher.
2-5 year partners will be bumped to 7% of the starting rate or 5% of their. Current rate, whichever is higher. (I might have those backwards.)
5+ year partners will be bumped to 10% of one of those, depending which is higher.
There's also still an annual raise around January.

I’m in Michigan and have no clue what base pay is for green beans vs shifts, nor do I know what the new SSV pay will be with the new increase. I moved up to SSV like 2 months ago and make $16.51 I think.
