After working all day in a cubicle, I'd spend my nights as your friendly, neighborhood Starbucks barista! I remembered your name, made each drink exactly to your specifications and did it all with a bright smile. I've served celebrities, worked both drive thru & cafe stores, worked every holiday and have kept the customers from knowing about all the craziness that goes on behind the scenes... until now. Ask me anything.
Starbucks corporate would be your best bet. Call the partner line.

Beyond store manager there are district and regional managers that you could likely get from starting at a barista with no previous experience. That said, my belief is that having experience with Starbucks may be a plus when going to the corporate side.
I think that a person with no work experience outside of Starbucks will NOT easily make it into the corporate office. However, if you are one of the best candidates for a corporate job and you have previous Starbucks experience, that might be an advantage.
This isn't anything Starbucks has specifically said, but any worthwhile company will value staff with experience--especially at the lowest level--and Starbucks is no exception.

I believe there was a military discount when I worked at Starbucks. I assume there still is. The best way to find out is to ask your barista!
Share Answer: 
Order with "no classic" to make it without any simple syrup (sugar). The matcha will have no impact on sweetness.

When I was there in 2012, we used Tazo. I am unsure of the specifics. I assume nothing has changed but you would have to ask Starbucks to confirm.
Share Answer: 
Yes. Talk to your store manager and the store manager in the location you plan to move. It must be approved by both.
Share Answer: 
Tips are calculated by week at Starbucks and at my store turned out to be approximately $20/week. As with any job, your mileage may vary depending on store location and clientele.
For comparison, my previous coffee shop was $20/day.
