Pros

Great salary, varied schedule, great benefits. Always something new while working there. Coworkers were all wonderful people and the Mates were also generally very pleasant. Trader Joe's is very much like a big family. I enjoyed my time there.

Cons

Too many Mates, many had unsavory attitudes, often would get conflicting feedback from Mates.
