Show Notes

Starbucks introduces a new bonus program to boost barista productivity and customer service, aiming to revitalize sales and customer experience. The initiative, led by new CEO Brian Niccol, offers hourly workers an extra $1,200 annually if their store meets sales, operations, and customer service goals. The program, set to launch in July, comes as global sales at existing stores surged 4% in the last quarter, the highest growth in two years. Additionally, customers can now tip via credit or debit on the app or at registers, potentially increasing worker pay by 5-8%. The changes are expected to improve results and offset costs, with shares climbing 7.4% this year.
