Wage increase after Starbucks unionizing? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Intelligent-Data5160
My wife’s store just unionized. I’m not trying to make a pro-union or anti-union post but had a question regarding pay.

1. Have any unionized stores seen a wage increase yet?

2. I understand that a lot of negotiations are on hold. Will that mean that my wife won’t get her yearly raise?

Union barista here. No unionized stores will see union-related wage increases until contracts are in force, which isn’t the case yet for any US stores. My store did get the same increase that non-union stores received in August.

So far Starbucks hasn’t announced plans for a New Year’s raise for anyone, union or not. They probably won’t give a raise then because of the recent August raises. The same thing happened last year. They are likely to attempt to withhold further raises from union stores, although the federal government is on the union’s side in the matter and the case is moving through the court system.

So it sounds like union employees are still getting the same raised that non union stores are getting (at least so far) until the contracts go through.

That’s good news! We were concerned that she would be stuck at her wage even if other non union stores were getting increases
