Labor Relations Radio, E88—A Trader Joe's employee reveals union tactics that led to a union's loss

"There’s another side to the story that people need to hear.” — ‘Kiki,’ a Trader Joe’s employee in Brooklyn, New York

Episode Summary: Following the Labor Relation Radio episode in June, featuring Trader Joe’s employees Michael Alcorn and Les Stratford, ‘Kiki’ (an employee of Trader Joe’s in Brooklyn, New York) explains how she may have “started the ball rolling” with the union, then saw the union’s tactics—including racially segregating employees, attacking good managers, and attempting hacking into the employer’s system to get employee information—all of which helped she and her co-workers eventually decide to vote against unionizing.
