Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

If you grind your own beans and use a French press, it tastes way better than any Starbucks coffee. Grinders and presses are cheap and pay for themselves with a couple of uses. Save your money, and ruin a shitty company that screws its workers, all in one. Bonus!

I don’t know about their pay but they offer free college to employees. I don’t know who qualifies but was surprised. It’s online though, l believe. They pay good enough a 20 year old bought his first home on Starbucks. Closed 2 weeks after 21 birthday. Really cute 3BR home.

Cincinnati. Hamilton County. Higher prices than further out, rural. It’s cute as can be. Garage. Full basement, nice yard. Kid didn’t tell any relatives, or ask for help. At 20. We heard after he closed. Know it’s unusual but he did it 100% on Starbucks. Starbucks somehow pays his college. I boycott

We’re being fed crap the regime feels impacts household budgets. EXAMPLE: 47 decided gas prices of $3.00/gal should “alarm” us… And yet, no one here reminds shoppers that 2 2ltr bottles of Pepsi (1 gallon) is almost $8.00/gallon 😏 maybe that’s because PepsiCo owns McDonalds and contributes to trump

And yet a number of lists of "good to buy from" or "no need to boycott" have Starbucks as a decent company. I've never heard an employee of theirs state that. I know a few, and they understand why I won't go there or buy Starbucks products. A sham wrapped in green but smells like ...well you know.

Sure, if you have the time, but I keep organic beans in the freezer. Then toss & heat them to about 150 F in a pan, grinding in two stages fresh, then brew. Keeps very well for a week in the fridge

Propaganda definitely plays a role, but there are some people who are just so invested in their careers or the company's "vision" that they refuse to see the reality around them. I became disenfranchised in 2008 after the best, most experienced people were fired to keep useless new hires.
