Not around here, but generally they treat their employees significantly better regardless.

Rhetorical… For safety, working conditions and the collective bargaining of Unions is great. This Shelburne rd location is the worst. My guess is most of the staff that pushed for the Union are gone due to retail turnover. So this crop will pay union dues into an empty vessel, get nothing better out of it & we can all virtue signal and go to this location. But you’ll be right back to your local shop cuz.. shelburne rd location stinks. Colchester, essex, WILListon!! These aren’t meat packers in 1875 and their unionization has not made them more efficient, better, happier etc.

I'm not a Starbucks worker, but unionization made my life a lot better! And I do better work as a result.
