Starbucks ordered to pay $25 million to ex-manager who claimed she was fired because she was white
she was instructed by her superiors to suspend a white district manager who oversaw stores around Philadelphia, even though, she said, he was not directly involved and did not oversee the store where the incident took place.
She disputed that the white district manager was involved, said she had no performance-based reason to suspend him, and said the store in question was overseen by a Black district manager who was not facing discipline, she said in the suit. About a year after she pushed back against the proposed discipline, Phillips claimed she was fired and was only told her situation was"not recoverable," despite, she said, receiving a bonus the month before and her superior agreeing she was still doing"exceptional" work.that Phillips' race had anything to do with her firing, and said she failed in doing her job and understanding how serious the situation was as Starbucks was facing intense criticism.
