Trader Joe's reviews

The company is changing rapidly. The message is that change is good. Although it can be good, it's not always good. There are many changes happening in Trader Joe's that aren't for the good of the crew. Over a period of time they have cut our pay raises from 4 a year to 2 a year, retirement is cut by 5.4 percent a year, health coverage cut, etc. The company used the bad economy as an excuse to make these changes. The timing was right for our CEO to make these changes happen. If you thing about the timing of all of the changes. It's a master piece of one change at a time so we can adapt and get use to the pain of each change. None of these changes has the crew's best interest at hart, only the owners. I wonder what's next?

Physically demanding with repetitive stress especially on the hands, fingers, wrists and back. Management acts like they care but they truly don't especially with the new health care policies. They hired tons of new, young crew members so we could not pick up extra hours to make the cut for the minimum hours for company health care. Customers can be rude and demanding during rush hours and holidays.
