Starbucks' largest workers union announced that it would go on strike in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Seattle, where it is headquartered, just days ahead of Christmas.
On Wednesday, the union told BI that it would strike to protest hundreds of unresolved unfair labor practice cases and the company's failure to negotiate a sufficiently comprehensive pay package.
