Pros

Opportunity, opportunity, opportunity… The sky is the limit, regarding what one would like to achieve within the Trader Joe’s company. As long as you have made a commitment, show leadership skills and an honest desire to grow; you can go far and have fun while doing it.

Cons

Hours of commitment to work can be exhausting, but surely worth it. It can be tough, managing a schedule that can take you anywhere from 4a-12a. Of course, you have a fair turn around time, but it does take time getting used to.

Pros

Great people, good pay, fun. Customers and crew members alike tend to be fun and polite.

Cons

More corporate all the time. Tougher than ever to promote, too much focus on the bottom line.
