In 2022, workers from several Trader Joe's grocery stores voted on whether to unionize.

Other workers have organized with the United Food and Commercial Workers. Trader Joe's, a chain with over 500 locations, is known for its neighborhood store vibe and over-the-top customer service, which has sometimes clashed with its working conditions.
