Starbucks Corp. said that it plans to cut 350 corporate jobs across areas including marketing, creative, product, technology and store development.

"Building the next chapter of Starbucks requires us to focus on fewer priorities and transform our functional teams work in order to accelerate the velocity of innovation that is relevant to our customers, inspiring to our partners, and meaningful to our business," wrote Chief Executive Kevin Johnson in an email to staff.(dpa)
