Workers at the Starbucks Reserve Roastery on Chicago's Michigan Avenue — the largest Starbucks in the world — are seeking union representation.
Starbucks employees who work at the company’s Reserve Roastery, a 35,000-square-foot store at 646 N. Michigan Ave., filed for a union election with the National Labor Relations Board on Friday.
The prospective bargaining unit includes about 230 baristas and mixologists who serve elaborate coffee-based drinks and cocktails, bakers who make pastries in-house, and operations leads who work in retail and customer service at the five-story caffeine emporium, according to the workers’ union filing.
