Starbucks is increasing its in-office work requirement, mandating corporate employees to return to the office four days a week. A flyer from employees expresses concern over this, stating that returning is about more than office comfort—it's about the company's culture and values. Some leadership roles have had remote work eliminated, requiring relocation. Voluntary buyout packages are being offered to those preferring to leave the company. Employees fear this strict mandate will damage Starbucks' partner-first culture.
Getting 'Back to Starbucks' isn't just about comfy chairs. It's about our Culture, Values, Mission, and how we treat people and the environment. This is the wrong direction. Please stop.
The return-to-office mandate is about enhancing the company's culture, not further reducing head count.
Starbucks offered voluntary buyout packages of between $20,000 and $100,000 for those who would rather leave the company.
Some 'people leaders' had their remote status eliminated, requiring them to relocate to Seattle or Toronto.
