Vantaggi
Comments below are related to working for sbux "marketing" in their HQ. Ostensibly because it is a big brand and an opportunity to have a big impact on a large audience. There are some nice people there, but mistrust and backstabbing pervade.
Svantaggi
Management is venal, dishonest, incompetent, and petty. Decision-making process (if you assume there is actual cognitive activity on the part of management) is opaque and seemingly random. Their marketing efforts, especially on the web, are pointless and are not seen as valuable by senior mgmt. The company is in dire financial straights and is cutting staff monthly. Howard Schultz is a con man, and a bad one at that.
