Starbucks CEO Threatens to Withhold Benefits From Unionized Workers

The CEO of Starbucks, Howard Schultz, has said that his company would not be able to provide expanded benefits to unionized employees, if they were to increase the benefits for workers in the future. This statement has been described as an “indefensible threat” from Schultz by labor organizers who are working to form unions at Starbucks locations around the country. This comes on the heels of several new Starbucks stores having voted to form unions, with as many as 216 stores now being targeted by labor organizers.

New York Court Rules Against Starbucks’ Employees in A Suit about Tips

If you are working at Starbucks and think your “shift supervisors” shouldn’t be sharing in your tips, then it may be time to move out of New York State and into Massachusetts.

The 2nd Circuit Court, whose jurisdiction extends to New York, Vermont and Connecticut, ruled against baristas in a class action claiming that their shift supervisors should not be allowed to grab a cut of their bounty under state labor law. In 2008, baristas Jeana Barenboim and Jose Ortiz sued Starbucks for more than $5 million on behalf of more than 5,000 of their fellow employees serving at 400 New York stores. They claimed that the chain’s corporate structure made them share their hard-earned tips with their “shift supervisors,” whom they alleged to be actually their bosses. This put the company in violation of New York Labor Law, according to the lawsuit.

    Steven pulled victory from the clutches of defeat. My situation was grim and I had no leverage in negotiating my severance. Steven stepped in, didn't over promise, and got me much better terms. He's great. An absolute miracle worker.

    Mr. Sack helped me get a severance when my employer had no intentions of providing me with one, after I was terminated. He tells you the truth; no bs, even though it might not be what you want to hear. He always answered my calls personally and exlpained next steps in details. He fought for my rights, and I'm very pleased with the outcome. Highly recommend!!

    Steven is an incredible person that also happens to practice his craft on a level that will impress you out the gate. Hiring him and talking to him will immediately give you peace of mind. One thing to be careful of is that after working with him you will start expecting more from every other lawyer you ever work with!

    I first heard of Steven on a morning radio show talking about his new book, Fired! Coincidently soon after that I needed somebody like him.Steven is super smart, very knowledgeable, thorough, and understands what a person is going through who is either accepting an offer or just got laid off or fired. He was very prompt to respond and turned things around within hours. Best part, his hourly rates are very reasonable.Steven is now on my permanent call list for all things employment law.

    Mr. Steve Sack did a great job with negotiating my employment separation agreement. He was able to get me more money in severance and an additional week of PTO. In addition, he was diligent with constant follow-up on my behalf with my former employer's attorney (who were very slow to respond), and with me for revisions in the agreement and obtaining the proper signatures over the course of several months. I would definitely recommend him.

    Attorney Steven Sack fights for the little guy/gal/person. He was very kind and generous to help me, knowing that my case was pretty small compared to others. To me, this speaks volumes to his character and shows he does what he does because he truly cares. He also helped me to get a better outcome for my situation, and I am so grateful for that. I cannot thank Mr. Sack enough for his help!

    I can’t say enough great things about Steven. I knew from our first call that he was different from all of the other lawyers I consulted with, and believe me, I spoke with many. His expertise is apparent and proved incredibly valuable during negotiations. He is extremely transparent, which is hard to come by nowadays, and was always quick to respond and provide updates as soon as they happened.Not only does he know his stuff but he actually cared about the details and circumstances, which personally meant a lot to me and put me at ease during a very difficult time. After a really long search I began to give up hope of finding representation that wasn’t only focused on “what was in it for them” Steven was that needle in the haystack that completely changed my mind. I can’t thank or recommend him enough!

    Steve is the real deal. He helped me navigate a tough time for me (after being part of an unlucky group of employees laid off). He reviewed my severance package, leveled with me straight what was and wasn’t possible, checked in on every step of the process, and in the end — he was able to negotiate a better package for me. I would not have been able to do any of this without his expertise. I highly recommend you consider his services for your employment legal issues, he has the solutions! Thank you again, Steve!

I found him to be knowledgeable, reasonable and very patient. I highly recommend Mr. Sack. He keeps you informed and sometimes he calls me twice a day when there was an update on my case. Thank you Mr. Sack!

    Steven is an outstanding lawyer. He is quick to understand the facts of a case and presents a very amicable attitude towards opposition lawyers. His friendliness and demeanor uncover a human aspect to the legal profession that is often underestimated. I cannot stress enough the reality and truth that the human element matters, sometimes even more than the facts of the case itself. Go with Steven if you need a quick assessment and want to have all your bases covered. He will do everything in his power to get you the best deal possible.

    I cannot say enough good things about Steven. He is my absolute hero. After being laid off from a job of 14 years, I was devastated, confused and afraid of my future. Steven immediately made me feel at ease. He got right back to me and always kept me up to date on what was going on with my case. It was a complicated case and my previous employers were tough. But Steven fought for every penny for me and got me more than they originally offered. He was clear and always honest. He is a straight shooter and never tried to “over-sell” what he could do for me. HIRE HIM NOW. You will not be disappointed and he will fight for you. Steven is a true gem.

    I was a superintendent in the bronx for 30 years when my boss thought i was not cost effective any longer. I was being let go and had nothing to fall back on. I reluctantly went to steven sack but i read about him and his firm and decided to try and I'm so glad I did. I was introduced to andrew sack who took over my case he got me a fair severance and treated me with compassion and they were very straight forward with me. I'm just a blue collor worker,but it's so reassuring to know we have someone that looks out for us. Thank you so much steven, and Andrew sack for making me feel like I'm important.

He actually seems to care about his clients and wants to take care of them at a time when they’ve gone through a rough patch.Also, his economics are very fair and are risk free for the employees.Lastly, when I got a new job, Steven reviewed my contract for free and helped make sure that I was better protected this time around.I highly recommend Steven and if ever anything comes up again, I will go back to him.

    Steven worked on my case and was able to handle my severance quickly and professionally. Steven's sense of prognosing the outcome of my case was accurate, and I ended up getting a better severance package from my previous employer then they had initially offered. Through all of my anxiety for the result of the severance, Steven was patient with me and helped me regain my composure. He was quick to respond to my inquiries and explained every step of the process to me throughly. Steven Sack is truly a 5-star employee attorney!!!

If at any time he was delayed in reconnecting with me, he would always communicate that to give me the heads up. I was blown away by how on top of his game and organized he is, no matter what his volume of clients are at the moment, to be able to maintain such consistency. It is clear Steven has both the depth of experience and knowledge, alongside being a solid/fantastic human being, that is deeply passionate about his work. This kindness and passion comes through in both his work and interactions with clients. I give Steven Sack a Michelin Star 🌟 💫 rating based on my experience working with him!

    Steven Mitchell Sack came highly recommended to me by a former colleague. I was hesitant about even contacting an attorney but all doubts dissipated the moment I met Steve. He began our meeting by telling me about his qualifications and experience complete with supporting letters and articles. I had an immediate sense that I was with someone very special. And he is. Steve is a brilliant and successful attorney, passionate about his work, professional, kind, honest and ethical… Steve is the entire package. He successfully represented me and insured that I was not taken advantage of by my former employer. I could not be more pleased with how well my case was handled or how quickly. Steve wrote the book on the rights of employees. Literally, he wrote the book. Steve Sack is the BEST Labor & employment lawyer in New York, bar none.

    It was my good fortune to be referred to Mr. Steven Sack by the New York City Bar Legal service to represent me in a proceeding this past year.I was immediately put at ease by his understanding, honest, and forthright manner. His council and legal representation allowed me to extricate myself from a difficult situation with integrity and grace. I would unequivocally recommend Mr. Steven Sack to represent me in any legal matter that may arise in the future.

    Steven is an excellent attorney. He is a fierce lawyer and this is a type of lawyer you want to have him on your side. He knows the laws and he is a very compassionate, knowledgeable, sharp, fair and just lawyer. He will respond to your calls and he would not waste your time. And, it is my pleasure to know a man like this. He surprised me, and I am so glad he is my lawyer. He is someone that I am and will always admire.

    Steven Sack, Attorney, began counseling me on employee rights and how to negotiate with employers for the best possible compensation package in 1998. The outcome was spectacular for me. My employment was cut short after 4 years due to a death in the family, and Steven Sack stepped in on behalf of the family to save our family business from being sold. His skill dealing with the automobile manufacturer, key employees and family set the stage for a successful transition to the next generation, and preservation of the family legacy. He serves as corporate counsel to our family franchised auto business, as well as a Director on the board. Whether he is advising our HR Department on personnel matters, analyzing potential business deals, or giving advice to the myriad of day-to-day activities that occur in a large automobile dealership, Steven Sack brings a keen analytical and legal mind to each situation. Our business, as well as my personal interests, are safe and secure with Steven Sack part of the team.

    I met Steve about 35 years ago when I started my business.During that time, he has not only won every case he worked for me, but I also consider him a trusted friend. Steve has taught me, held my hand in bad times, given me a number of the books he has written, which happen to be extremely informative, and I would trust him with my life. There is nobody in employee/employer law that is better. He has handled other legal matters for me outside, of employee rights, and has always done right by me. Thank you Steve

    Steve has virtually become a member of my family. Over the 20 years that I know him, and have done business with him, his integrity and ethics, are eyond reproach. Not only has he succeeded in all of my affairs, but I have also referred him to family and friends, who tell me the same thing. I've never had a bad experience, won all of my cases, and never looked back. If you want a completely competent, well prepared, and tireless attorney to fight for you, look no further than Steve Sack. Respectfully, Don Cambareri

    Steven Sack was my attorney. Now I'm proud to say he is my friend. I walked into his office having many questions, and not knowing where to turn. He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. He stayed in contact with me throughout the whole process. Needing an attorney is very stressful. He took away the stress and made me feel like I had someone to go to that was in my corner. I highly recommend Steven if you have a need for an employment attorney. He is without a doubt and amazing human being!

    I have been working with Steven since 2002 when we created our company. Finding Steven was one of the absolute best things to happen to us. His advice and guidance has been paramount to our success! I can't stress it enough. Steven does not break the mold on the stereotypical attorney, he shatters it! We use a fair amount of contracts in our business and the Agreements he has put together for us have protected us in a tremendous way. Steven's Agreements have been so good, it has kept us out of the need for any litigation. The reason for this is because the documents are so strong, when we have needed to access them we are able to negotiate a favorable settlement. Steven is sharp, extremely intelligent, personable, accessible and responsive. Steven has become a true friend and confidant, a valued mentor to me personally and to our company!

    Steven is an exceptional lawyer that is considerate of his clients. A lawyer that meets with you in person, consistently responds to emails and phone calls and provides regular updates is hard to find. Steven did all and above. I highly recommend him as an employment lawyer. One of the best I've ever worked with.
