Working at starbucks has its perks and downfalls. It depends completely on the management time in your district and your store. I've worked at 3 different locations over the past 5 years in different districts. My first location was dreadful. The management team was very discouraging. The staffing team of baristas and shift supervisors did not seem to care enough about the store, and it was a bit of a mess and caused much more stress for those who remotely cared about the job. That being said, I moved to a different location with pleasant staff and very encouraging management team and there was much more of a difference in the work atmosphere. The hours are pretty awful depending on your location. If you are prepared to be at work for 430am for an open or if you don't mind staying at work until 1am cleaning up the store than this is the job for you!
