When she moved to LA, she was given a job at a local Starbucks and when my husband needed surgery they not only gave her time off to come home, they also paid for her ticket to get there. Starbucks is a great company to work for, it's nice to see employees treated well.
Yes good company but they have closed almost 300 stores in USA since 2009. Growing overseas but not in US.
