Trader Joe's Team Employee Reviews

What are some of the best things about your team?

the best things about my team are the synergy between myself and the crewmates whom i like the most

Review from Sales Dept

The crew if fun and enjoy working together.

Review from Operations Dept

Pretty good comradere. We all are able to communicate and collaborate.

can't quite put a finger on wich thing is the best because everything is great, bryan is an excellent person

They are always supportive with everything I do and its easy to communicate any issues that come along.

They have been nothing but kind since starting and they are like my second family

the crew is friendly and fun

Review from Customer Success Dept

Most of my coworkers are emotionally intelligent and provide great customer service. To that end, they are generally extroverted and caring people.

dynamic, fun, helpful, communicators, optimistic

Large management team to spread out the tasks and lead effectively

We respect each other and we don't hesitate to help each other. Most of the time everybody is in a good mood. The fact that we move from task to task helps with that. It makes your day go quickly.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Hard work and kindness. They're great

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Attitide, saftey, communication, teamwork, integrity

COMMUNICATION!!!!!!! Leadership does not communicate to each other and not to the crew...

My peers are great, it is management staff that are awful and make coming to work unpleasant.

The store does little in terms of making sure 300 employees are not partaking in discriminatory behavior against eachother or clientele. I've heard antisemitic, anti lgbt, anti Asian, and anti black commentary nearly daily since working there.

Managemnet needs to be completely revamped. I have been told to "be quiet and forget" several times in response to my complaints

Listening to each other and valuing what each crew member bring to the table. Less about being competitive and more about supporting and helping each other as a team.

just know what to make a priority

Basic speaking and manners. Math as well

Co-workers are great for the most part but there is a lack of training and support from the top.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Actually caring about the job

Hire better employees who have a brain.

If people were actually treated with dignity.

There is not enough room to write it all down. Mostly horrible nasty people who get away with many bad things.

Most of them need to be fired they are just lazy people trying to recreate high school and again the favoritism is just disgusting

Review from Sales Dept

So many empoyees find work optional and are able to get away with not putting in their part.

They need to listen more and not ignore the crew memebers out cries for help.

Review from Product Dept

If there was better pay and greater value for employees then the team would be more interested in working better together toward the ultimate goal

Review from Customer Support Dept

Hiring staff that works. Most mates hire on friendliness not on skill aet

I have no problem with my coworkers

Doing their work with integrity! Stop clicks and making others feel left out or talked about. The young crowd here are free to do as they please. Gossip should be stopped and not taken as truth.
