Starbucks Workers United reported that the ongoing strikes, which began in major cities like Chicago and Los Angeles, would significantly affect operations by affecting over 300 stores by Tuesday.
The union argued that the work stoppages, while relatively small, underscore the serious discontent among baristas regarding pay and working conditions during this busy holiday season.
Sara Kelly, Starbucks’ executive vice president, claimed that despite the strikes, the overall impact on operations would be limited, with 97-99% of stores remaining open.
Starbucks accused Workers United of submitting proposals for wage increases that are 'not sustainable,' citing that such demands would put financial strain on the company.
