Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson says labor-organizing efforts at some of the chain’s cafes undermine a relationship with employees 'that has served us so well for decades'
. The company has already moved to address concerns raised by the baristas in Buffalo, pledging better wages and increased staffing, he said.
The National Labor Relations Board, which is overseeing the election, still must decide on an appeal filed by Starbucks as to the vote’s structure. Depending on that outcome, the NLRB could tally the votes on Thursday. “One of the values that Starbucks has as its core mission and value statement is challenging the status quo, and that’s what we’re doing to try to make things better,” said Michelle Eisen, a Buffalo barista who is helping organize the union.
