"The compensation is also not very good when compared to its competitors. I enjoy working for Trader Joe's but find it very difficult to live on the wage that they pay. I feel that they underpay the employees through a few very clever tactics. They keep most employees under the acquired amount of the hours so that they do not qualify for benefits. They also employ a large amount of people to keep anyone other than management from receiving any kind of overtime. Most crew members fail to receive 40 hours per week."

"It's better than most grocery store jobs, but considering that I used to have benefits with them and no longer do, I feel like I took a huge pay cut for no real reason. They also have a fairly arbitrary raise system that makes everyone in the store anxious twice a year."
