Working at Starbucks

What's it like to be a partner?

A Starbucks career is a journey that starts with learning about coffee, often through coffee tasting and roasting events. Beyond that, you’ll also learn how to help our business – and your partners – grow and thrive.

Working at Starbucks is a lot like working with your friends. We understand, respect, appreciate and include different people. And we believe in keeping each other informed, so our senior leaders regularly hold Open Forum events to answer your questions.

The Starbucks Total Pay package is called “Your Special Blend” because it’s just for you.

Your Special Blend might include:

Competitive pay
Insurance: medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, life, disability
Bonuses
Paid time off
Retirement savings plan
Stock options and discounted stock purchase plan
Adoption assistance
Domestic partner benefits
Emergency financial aid
Referral and support resources for child and eldercare
A free pound of coffee each week
