Seattle-Based Starbucks Employees - Relocation Concerns Nashville Move

Starbucks is opening a new $100 million office in Nashville. There's only one issue: it's been challenging to get Seattle-based staff to move. To be sure, the new office will be home to 2,000 workers, and many of those roles will be brand new positions. But the company said today it's also moving part of its tech organization from Seattle, in addition to the roughly 100 sourcing workers it already offered relocations to. Workers' concerns range from a pay cut they'd have to take to align with the city's cheaper cost of living, a move to more conservative Tennessee from liberal Seattle, and concerns about uprooting their families. Starbucks said it will maintain a large presence in Seattle. If you work at Starbucks and have thoughts about this move (or anything else), I want to hear from you.
