Great Management, great people to work with.
Receptionist/sales representative (Former Employee), Houston, TX – May 17, 2013
Pros: good hours and pay.

I really enjoyed my job. Meeting and helping different people was great. My managers were very reasonable and understanding with school schedule or with anything that came up. They tried to help us in anything they could. My co-workers were great and fun people to work with. We assisted customers in any way we could.

What started off good.
Host (Former Employee), Charlotte, NC – May 15, 2013
Pros: good pay, skills learned that goes along way
Cons: poor management, empty promises made by upper staff
When I first started working within the HMS Host company I was hired as an Inventory Control Specialist, which included processing orders,, making sure products were correct before going into stores. Was always on time, and keep a positive work place attitude. As years went by management became less stable, and due to that the work place moral dropped – more... highly, leading to a lot of other workers not showing up, and shortages on others end. Eventually the company lost its contract with the airport, and another came in, I was offered a position with the new employers, but i decline due to the fact my only child was being born at the time. I decided to take time off and spend time with him, while making sure when I return back to the career field I would chose wisely. – less

5th Floor
Verifier (Former Employee), Irving Texas – May 11, 2013
Cons: sweat shop!
I worked on the 5th floor! What a bad experience! It's a revolving door. No one there is hire with the company. Everyone comes in as a temp and the door just revolves! There are no benefits, no sick time, no vacation! we were told to talk to your temp agent with any question! just come here and work and get it done or there is 10 more coming to replace – more... you. Every week 10 come in and 8 leave! I did 653 policies a week with 9 errors and was told that's not good enough! I was told that's 89%! Are you kidding! What percentage are you looking at! Everyone on the floor is treated like a robot slave! 95% black and poor working space! For some I guess 10 an hour is worth it its a job! – less

Very productive company.
Host/ Starbucks Barista (Former Employee), Birmingham, AL – April 22, 2013
A typical day at work would consist of opening the facility. Also, grinding coffee beans for fresh brewed coffee and brew specific herbal teas. Another duty was to clean and equip espresso machines. Thirdly, stock the necessary products for that day. Such as coffee beans, tea bags, milks (whole milk, soy milk), powder mix, flavored syrups, and pastry – more... bins. At HMS Host/ Starbucks I learned how to prepare coffee, espresso shots, lattes, cappuccinos, Frappuccino's, blended beverages, cashiering, and how to stock properly. The management of this company were awesome! Very lenient with scheduling. Also, the management was easy to get along with and they met every need of their employees. The co-workers were easy to converse with. There was never a dull moment working because everyone was so humble and friendly. There was no hard task on the job because I learned very quickly on how to prepare beverages for the customers. The most enjoyable part of this job was making customer beverages correct and knowing that they enjoyed their coffee. – less

fun place to work
Starbucks Barista (Former Employee), Norfolk International Airport – April 15, 2013
Pros: free coffee, free lunch
Cons: location
This was my favorite job, because i was working with Starbucks. I enjoyed working for this company. I've learned how to interact with people, how to maintain my attitude around people, and how to just have a good time while working. I would love to get back in to Starbucks, because i feel that this is something i was born to do. Making coffee has been – more... a JOY to me, but the best part of working for Starbucks, is knowing that YOU have made someone day a bit better > – less

Very Self Absorbed
Data Match Specialist/Insurance Verifications (Former Employee), Albany, NY – March 27, 2013
Pros: paid days off, christmas parties
Cons: the attitudes of people and no real employee appreciation
In the beginning I enjoyed working there but towards the end I saw a lot of underhanded things going on many alliances were formed and it was that happy place I use to work when I first started. I realized that I needed a change when I dreaded going to work. Some of my co-workers were great others had other agendas some manangement were great also. – more... The job was fairly easy nothing really hard about it the enjoyable part was the two 15 min breaks and the 1 hour lunchs we had – less

Starbucks through HMS Host
HMS Host - Starbucks (Former Employee), Mantua, OH – March 24, 2013
Pros: awesome atmosphere, free coffee and tea, customer satisfaction, learning about merchandise and advertising, flexible hours.
Cons: horrible treatment from co-workers and boss.
A typical day would require opening the store, counting money in the safe, and counting money for the registers. Setting up the day for your current employee, and as a supervisor you are fully responsible for everyone else. Then, HMS also runs a travel store, and you would do the exact same thing for that. I would make sandwiches, yogurts and back up – more... of anything we needed for Starbucks that day. Also, taking care of customers who have questions or problems of any kind such as with the store, their drinks or merchandise. I would also advise and teach my co-workers new recipes and ways to help keep the store clean and the customers satisfied. The hardest part was being a leader for people who have worked there 20+ years because you do not have them listen to you. The most enjoyable part was making people happy in ways that I could touch their day with a Starbucks drink. My co-workers slowly got fired or quit, and the ones who stayed were somewhat hard to get along with. My boss was only doing his job, but the company came first and not his employees. – less
