Starbucks is shuttering 250 North American stores this week, its second mass closure under CEO Brian Niccol after 627 locations and 900 corporate jobs got cut last September. The company won't say which stores are closing or how many are unionized, even as it presses ahead with retrofitting coffeehouses to look cozier.
