Le nouveau patron de Starbucks, qui n'a pas encore pris ses fonctions, déjà au coeur d'une polémique: Le groupe lui met un jet privé à disposition pour se rendre au travail !

  • il y a 2 mois
Le nouveau patron de Starbucks n’a pas encore pris ses fonctions mais ses conditions de travail ont suscité la controverse: Brian Niccol aura accès à un jet appartenant au groupe américain pour se rendre au siège, situé à environ 1600 kilomètres de son domicile.

«Vous pourrez utiliser l’avion de la société pour (…) les voyages entre votre ville de résidence et le siège de la société à Seattle, Washington», indique la lettre du conseil d’administration proposant le poste au cadre, publiée jeudi sur le site du gendarme boursier américain.

Ancien patron de la chaîne de restauration rapide mexicaine Chipotle, Brian Niccol habite à Newport Beach, une commune de Californie au sud de Los Angeles, à environ 2h40 en avion de Seattle.

«Pendant la durée de votre emploi au sein de l’entreprise, il ne vous sera pas demandé de déménager au siège de l’entreprise», précise la lettre. «Vous acceptez de faire la navette entre votre domicile et le siège de la société (et d’effectuer d’autres déplacements professionnels) dans le cadre de l’exercice de vos fonctions et responsabilités.»

La nouvelle a fait polémique sur les réseaux sociaux, certains internautes accusant Starbucks de faire preuve d’hypocrisie alors que la chaîne de cafés met régulièrement en avant ses efforts en matière de protection de l’environnement, comme l’élimination des pailles en plastique.
