Pros
Trader Joe's is truly a unique company. If you're willing to put up with the physicality of it all and the long hours as a supervisor, it will reward you in spades. You'll develop strong management and customer service skills, while, for the most part, having a good time. The people who are the most successful are the people who are already customers and think it would be a great place to work as well.
Cons
As a supervisor, you are scheduled a minimum of 50 hours, so be ready for that. There is a lot of burn out due to all the repetitive lifting, and stocking. Also, be ready to give up your weekends, but that's part of retail.
