Cons

over work , biased, at will job, management has no respect for employees managment often show little concern for workers need and health employees are over worked to the point of injury management has been known to make false claims on certain employees or singling out certain employees for termination and falsely lie on those filing for unemployment trader joes may be nice to shop in as a customer but to an employee it is no picnic in the park.

Pros

Awesome company. Good Pay, benefits, busy, great demographics. Customers definitely come first. Advancement. Some good managers. Some bad(usually off the street) meaning from another retail store not promoted from within

Cons

You could give your life to this company and become a Captain(general manager of the store) and live in fear that you could be demoted or fired at any time just because a crew member with a vendetta and thin skin constantly contacts HR trying to get you out.

Pros

Good benefits, fun people to work with, physical work

Cons

Used to be one of the best jobs in the country. They forced most people that knew what they were doing out of the company, lost their integrity, promote people to captain that are far from ready, just for the sake of gender equality which has already ruined 2 stores. Also, harder working part timers get the same raise as part timers that just meet the minimum. How is that fair?
