Show Notes

Starbucks introduces new rewards program for baristas and shift supervisors, offering up to $1,200 annually in bonuses based on store sales, operations, and customer service goals. Non-union stores will allow workers to keep tips from mobile orders, credit cards, and debit payments. Everyone will switch to weekly paychecks, and full-time coffeehouse coaches will be hired. The union criticizes the program, citing dependence on customer and company metrics. Starbucks aims to boost hourly earnings by 5-8% and refocus on the coffeehouse vibe amid store closures and layoffs.
