Starbucks is really good at marketing, maybe the best in the world. However, their coffee tastes burnt to me, roasting in such large quantities ensures that. It is uniform throughout, batch after batch, even through season change. Some of the speciality coffees don't have that same charcoal quality. Now that I live oversees it is nice to have a familiar coffee shop, now and then, provided I add flavoring of some sort.
I use to live in Seattle, and work in a coffee shop. New employees, who use to work at Starbucks, complained about it tirelessly. Most of the management seem like psychopaths, benefits and pay seem to be shit, customers are mostly abusive/ignorant. This is hearsay, but I've heard this from at least 5 different people. This is the main thing influencing my decision to go to independents.
