Partner Ideas “Under Review”
Apr 24, 2008
by MSI Team		   RSS

Some of you may not know this, but we also have a My Starbucks Idea expressly for our partners (employees). It’s their place to share ideas and discuss the things that matter most to them—both around the partner experience and customer experience.

Unfortunately, we don’t yet have an Ideas in Action blog just for partners (although we’re feverishly working on it!). But we definitely wanted to recognize the tremendous contributions and participation we’ve seen from our partners by featuring some of their great ideas here…

So here they are—some of the ideas “Under Review” from the partner site:  

  • A 24-Hour Store In Naperville, IL
  • Dress Code Changes
  • Electronic Pay Stubs
  • Different options for the partner markout (a partner perk which currently is a pound of coffee per week) including the ability to donate coffee to charity
  • A high quality coffee container
  • Increase the 10 cent personal cup discount
  • A marking on hot cups indicating for "room for cream"
  • The return of Valencia syrup
  • Soy-based Frappuccino® blended beverages
  • Starbucks facts printed on our cups

 Partners: thank you, and please keep those ideas and comments coming!

I would like to see the tattoo policy changed.  Tattoos are a part of embracing diversity and they are conversation starters.

I would like to see the pastries in the pastry case wrapped.  My customers complain all the time that our products are dry.  Today, after one day in the case, the banana loaf was so dry, I was embarrassed to sell it.  We have even cut our codes to only 2 days on mutiple day codes to avoid the problem, but all the loaves and coffee cakes are still drying out,  there is also a problem with gnats and flies.  We are a small Starbucks in a Kroger store, we don't sell much pastry anyhow with a bakery around the corner in our building selling donuts at 67 cents!  We only put a very small amount out, but most of them go to waste.  Also, the insect issue, we are located beside the front door that open every few seconds and right next to the produce department, can't you please, change your rule and let us keep our pastries wrapped on the trays.  Thank you for listening.  bsbs42

Valencia orange syrup was one of my favorite syrups. I still wish I could get a shot of orange in my coffee.
