If ethical reasons are a concern, you might want to avoid Trader Joe's as well on account of their union busting activities.
Traitor Joe's is more like it
They're also one of the companies trying to destroy the NLRB.
Curious as to what the union’s demands are. It’s my impression that Trader Joe’s treats their employees relatively well. I have multiple friends who work for them and are paid a living wage (in the Bay Area of all places) for working reasonable hours.
Trader Joe's changed their stance during the pandemic and are aggressively fighting unionization. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trader-joes-attorney-nlrb-unconstitutional_n_65b41e7ae4b014b873b11cc2 https://inthesetimes.com/article/trader-joes-union-organizing-fight
If a company genuinely cares about their employees, they'd support them unionizing.
Agreed
I hear you. I agree that union busting is bad. I support trader joes employees unionizing. I don't want their stores to close and those employees to be out of a job.
