Great company - Project Manager ALDI DX Employee Review

Fair pay, great co-workers, moderate work/life balance.

ALDI is very cheap and budgets are very strict, so except cheap equipment and cheap employee treatment, like having to pay for things out of pocket. Culture is almost non-existent here, and of what is here, is very rigid and stale. Depending on your position, your day-to-day duties change like the wind, so it’s very difficult to establish a work rhythm. Sink or swim environment with absolutely ZERO investment in job training outside of the initial 1 week you get of general “onboarding” - then it’s off to the races. The leaders aren’t necessarily bad, but are very cold, robotic like, non-personable and distant. Lastly, the desk situation is a mess - having to book seat assignments weeks in advance is a royal pain, and when applicable, having to commute between the different office locations once per month is a headache.

Colleagues are the best thing I can think of.

They are trying to get rid of 30+% of us after hiring thousands from all over the world over the last 3-4 years. Leadership is not taking accountability and we are just numbers here.
