Starbucks is the coffee icon people either love it, hate it, need it, or you wouldn’t be caught dead there. Among the reasons to love: Starbucks gave us coffee language — or shamed us into it, depending on who you ask — turned the masses into espresso junkies and offers travelers a constant presence all over the world.

According to the article at the wisesloth.com, “ 5 reasons why I hate Starbucks”, the author wrote the 5 reasons are 1, Overpriced products, 2, Their marketing angle is to appeal to vain rich people, 3, Anyone who feeds you addictive chemicals is not your friend, 4, They pay their workers poorly, 5. They force their workers to dress and act like slave.
