"Simply put, Trader Joe's is listed as the #1 company in the country to work for. There are reasons for this. There business model enables them to pay their employees, securing quality, positive minded employees. Since each employee works in every section of the store, there is a great respect and understanding of all the jobs that need to be accomplished on a daily basis in order to provide consistent service to their customers. Management tends to be flexible and supportive and cares about its employees. They show this through not only daily interactions but through a good salary (2 salary increases per year if you simply do your job), but also through a matching 401k set up and exceptionally good health benefits. All in all it is a positive, supportive place to work."

"Trader Joe's was a good place to work when I was a student. However, the management doesn't often communicate well with the employees. Also, nepotism is a problem within the company. Managers give their favorite employees all of their desired shifts, while those who aren't favored struggle to get the shifts they need."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Don't get sucked into this store. Maybe it's better in other regions, but not here in Indy."
What don't you like about working at Trader Joe's?
"Promotions are given to those who kiss ass the most. We have more competent, intelligent, educated and genuine people among the crew than among the managers. Hours are cut for crew members so that our 15 (yes 15!) merchants and mates can be paid to do very little work. Crew members are overworked and tired. We have to have a completely open availability in order to get any hours, which leaves us with a poor quality of life and little sleep. Even with an open availability, some of us are still losing hours. A second job is out of the question because it would limit your availability."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"We have 15 bosses. This is ridiculous. Most of them are uneducated and unable to work their way through basic critical thinking. You have more qualified people among your crew. Stop promoting based on favoritism."
