    Remember, this is a company that supports slave labor and child labor by purchasing from farms that did such things. The incident in Brazil (in 2018) was not mishap. As recently as of April 2025, Starbucks have been accused again of purchasing from such farms.

    So at least they’re half-honest about this not being a productivity thing. On one hand thay say - help with the turnaround (productivity), but on the other they contradict it with letting people quit voluntarily (cost saving). So then it’s pretty obvious it’s about the latter.
