seriously, trader joes is AMAZING. they pay you beyond fairly, the hours are wonderful, the people are great, I couldnt find a complaint if I wanted to. The store I was at suffered a bit of nepotism, but hey it never got in the way of doing our actual jobs. The most fun I have EVER had at a job.

Store Manager (Former Employee) - Springfield, VA - February 18, 2021
Great people but not paid enough to live. Its a great job if you can live with your parents and eventually move somewhere much cheaper to live. I believe you keep your pay so if you start here and then move somewhere low in cost, you could make a living wage.

Crew Member (Former Employee) - Bethesda, MD - January 30, 2021
A typical day at work involves rotating between working the cash register, bringing items from the back and stocking them up front, and at the end of the night and in the morning, receiving, unloading, and then stocking palette's of groceries. At some point, you'll be on helms, where you're doing store beautification and taking down fridge temperatures. You may end up working the demo station, where you serve customers samples and answer questions about the store products. around 3 or 4, the floor crew gathers and discusses any store issues. You may end up working spoils, where you're separating bad food from donatable food. You get to try a lot of the products, to further your knowledge on the products. It honestly felt good to be so knowledgeable about that store. I think learning so much about it is what made me really love working there and providing people with a quality service. The people were weird, but a really good weird. It quickly becomes a second family if you let them in.
Pros
Lots of food sampling, great benefits, great atmosphere
Cons
Working spoils.

Customer Service (Former Employee) - Rockville, MD - February 26, 2020
It was a sexist, toxic boys club of a place to work. Only the men were taught how operate the forklift and unload trucks, while only women were taught demo (aka the kitchen). The managers refused to address employee's directly, instead opting to exchange information through outside, 3rd party individuals. There were several instances of racist and sexist incidents that management flat out covered up, and there is a grown man still working in the same building as the child he sexually harassed. I will never work for this company again, and would advice anyone else against it as well.

Management changes too quickly and your whole life is devoted to pleasing your captain. Support is not proportional to criticism, and raises are disproportionate to workload.

Specialist (manager), Crew member and demo an (Former Employee) - Bethesda, Rockville, Gaithersburg and Silver Spring, MD - January 24, 2020
Great starter job to grow and potentially make into career. College and high school students especially can thrive using individual personality to stand out for customer service. People come and go so it’s a family....once a Crewbie always a Crewbie! If you’re a foodie you’ll LOVE your job here even more. And if you’re not you will be!

Sign Illustrator (Former Employee) - Rockville, MD - December 1, 2019
Trader Joe's was one of the few companies that hired artists to hand draw their new product signs and I was lucky enough to be one of those artists. Thing is , I studied art in school and deserve more than $14 an hour for it . There was an attitude that everybody was included, and I was except that two individuals behaved unprofessionally. I was bullied severely and since I was the only one, management didn't do anything about it. I co created murals aside from signs .
We had weekly tastings which was nice.

I would work there again over and over again. Awesome place to work, but cannot afford to work there and raise a child alone. Great management and awesome team building activities.

Crew Member - Section Leader (Former Employee) - Centreville, VA - October 30, 2019
TJ's hired outside manager with a poor TJ's culture, New Captains are afraid of standing for employees and side with managers even if there is an excellent employee in question. I am sorry I left other opportunities passed because I was valued by previous Captains before. The key is the managers fairness, other than that is okay.

I started working with Trader Joe's not long after I relocated and it was a great fit. The company and I continued to fit when I went back to school. Everyday offers something different with the variation of tasks to complete every hour. Everything about the company is very inviting - management, work culture, and rising within company.

it has been my pleasure to work for trader Joe's for five years. If there was a store closer to Frederick, MD I would stay but the commute is too challenging for my family.
Pros
Great advancement opportunities.

I enjoyed my time working at Trader Joe's. I had to leave for personal reasons but the Managers were always understandable and always were there to help. What was cool is the managers worked hand in hand with you and didn't micromanage and tell you what to do 24:7. I felt like I was helping a small community than working.
Pros
Discounts on groceries. Sampling the new products
Cons
Short Breaks.

Trader Joes takes care of its employees. The health insurance is the best deal I have heard of, and has better coverage than more expensive plans elsewhere. They offer 401k contributions without any employee contribution necessary. Management is very responsive to employee needs and unexpected life craziness. The work is hard, but also easy and fun.
Pros
Awesome people, great products, kind customers (usually)
Cons
On your feet whole time, excluding breaks. Small breakroom.

Trader Joe's Crew Member (Current Employee) - Baileys Crossroads, VA - August 7, 2019
Management gets moved around from store to store, thus leading to periods of good management or poor management. It's a bit of a coin flip depending on the management, but it can be a quite pleasant work environment if you arent unlucky.
