Pros

Great people, benefits, paid holidays, stay in shape, different every day

Cons

Inconsistent hours, awful pay considering they work us like work horses, empty promises from upper management, stressors that you're never really compensated for. High turnover, different pay rates so inconsistent pay. I've seen GREAT workers get shunned while lazy people get promoted, praised and given credit for others work. You get paid what minimum wage should ACTUALLY be, but you don't get paid enough to live comfortably, especially for the physical and mental stress. You're signing your life away for pay that isn't as good as it seems. It sounds great but it's not worth the stress honestly.

Pros

+ industry leading wages Associates - $12/hr, Shift Mgr - $16/hr, SMT - $23/hr, Store Manager - $75,000+/yr + great work environment + excellent training + health, dental, vision, life insurance, 401k + 40-50 hr/wk with paid overtime Very fast paced so work hours fly by. I loved working at Aldi. The pay was great! Benefits great! Was training to be a store manager so a lot was expected of me but I was totally up for it. My store manager loved my work, associates loved my fairness, customers loved me.

Cons

+ work/life balance + walked 28,000 steps/day!!! Never thought I would be fired for clocking in only minutes late!!
