What is a good response to this post? A few years ago, I was working at a third-party delivery service provider for Amazon and I was tasked with streamlining our company’s employee onboarding process.

What is a good respponse to this statement? I have chosen Starbucks in Australia for this discussion. Looking into this company you find it almost everywhere in the world with almost ease except in Australia. This is due to the economic risk it is to expand there. Australia is known to love coffee and has overall grown to having a huge industry there so in the companies' thoughts it should do well. However, Starbucks tends to make sweeter drinks at a higher cost compared to the local cafes. Australians also tend to favor the small local cafes in support of small businesses. This caused Starbucks to close most of their locations due to them growing to quickly in the amount stores they had to their overall popularity.
