In company reviews left by Starbucks Korea employees, the management category received the lowest score.
According to the industry on the 31st, an analysis by the office worker community Blind of evaluations from 568 Starbucks Korea employees from January last year to May this year found that Starbucks' overall rating averaged 2.74 out of 5.
By detailed category, management was the lowest at 1.81. It was lower than other categories such as pay and benefits (2.76), workplace culture (2.58), career growth (2.52), and work-life balance (2.49).
In particular, the management rating stayed in the 1-point range for most of the survey period. Even this year, aside from a single 2.00 in February, it remained in the high-1 range.
Although pay and benefits received the highest rating, it only reached the mid-2 range, leading to analysis that overall employee satisfaction is not high.
Office workers' interest in Starbucks also rose sharply. The number of searches for Starbucks on Blind surged from 2,393 in April to 91,080 in May. During the same period, the number of people searching grew from 944 to 46,870.
Since May, the most-mentioned related keyword for Starbucks was "boycott," with 1,038 mentions. "Government" (646), "Chung Yong-jin" (505), "partner" (453), and "store" (452) followed.
As of this month, Blind's monthly active user (MAU) ratio relative to Starbucks Korea's total headcount was 66%, the highest level during the survey period.
