      No HR, Union Busting - Mate Trader Joe's Employee Review

      Pros

      My coworkers are wonderful, they make the job worth having at all- save for a few of my coworkers in management who have adopted a more authoritarian management style- ridiculous for a Trader Joe’s

      Cons

      Upon speaking with many crew members about harassment claims and disrespectful treatment and then realizing that there is virtually no HR department to bring these claims to past higher management, I have become full of despair in regards to this job. They have created an echo chamber and are likewise unchecked in their union busting tactics.

      Pros

      -Great way to meet people, socialize, and learn customer service -Always tasked with different things every hour -Friendly crew who will always help you to learn and get better at your job -Get a slight pay raise every 6 months -No outside commitments and amazing benefits if you work full time (about 28 hours a week for every 6 months) -Will take time, but find your friend group, stay with them and have fun, you can't please everybody -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains

      Cons

      -Not many, unless you are stuck in a bad store with bad management -I had some good luck of working in 3 great stores, so YMMV -Sometimes can get cliquey like you are back in high school -Getting promoted up to store management may involve buttering up and being a "yes-person" -Care for your body, do not overdo it with physical labor, its a retail job and you only have one fragile body for yourself, get help or insist about your pains
