Starbucks Company employees will need to return to the office four days a week starting in October, the company announced Monday.
Starbucks is a letter to employees that says that Starbucks offers a “one-time, voluntary exit program with cash payments,” so for workers who prefer to leave the company rather than return to the office for an additional day.
“I understand that not everyone agrees with this approach,” Nicole wrote in the presentation. “We listened carefully and thought about it. But as a company built on human connections, we believe this is the right path for Starbucks, given the scale of the transformation ahead.”
Under Nicole’s leadership, the coffee chain is trying to reverse the poor sales in the US. His strategy focuses on simplifying the chain’s menu, improving the coffee shop experience, and reducing service time to four minutes per cup.

In February, the company said it would not fill hundreds of open positions as part of Nicole’s efforts to cut 1,100 jobs and streamline its operations.
Starbucks had around 16,000 employees working outside the store as of last year.
