Nearly 40,000 full-time partners, from star baristas to district managers, will enjoy this new benefit. In addition to the "14 salary", Starbucks China has also continued to increase its investment in benefits and significantly upgraded its existing partner benefits, including: competitive annual performance adjustment pay; a more optimized morning and evening shift allowance; upgrade the amount of "housing allowance" in some cities; "partner awareness" programs that encourage partners to experience in different cities, and so on. Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson has previously said: "at Starbucks, we are a family, we are people-oriented, which is why we call each other" partners ". Therefore, the talent reserve is also the top priority of Starbucks' development.

Data show that since Starbucks entered China in 1999, Starbucks China currently has more than 60,000 partners. The main groups of Starbucks China pay adjustments include front-line operators ranging from star baristas to district managers. In other words, nearly 40,000 full-time Starbucks China partners will enjoy this new benefit. At present, the coffee market continues to be hot. From the perspective of the global coffee track, whether online or offline, the development of the coffee industry is defined as extremely broad prospects. It is estimated that the size of China's coffee market will reach 180.6 billion yuan by 2023 and 217.1 billion yuan by 2025. However, the broader the prospect, the fiercer the competition. Although Starbucks is the leader of the coffee industry, at present, various major industries are pouring into the coffee market, and the strong coffee brand is no longer the only major situation of Starbucks. Industry people said: perhaps the coffee industry will face greater demand for employees, and it is understood that among the various brands in the coffee industry, the salary level of the position of "barista" is not big. Against this backdrop, Starbucks, as the world's largest coffee chain, may have the advantage of retaining existing employees and attracting new ones.
