Pros

there is always something to do

Cons

Pay is actually just average when compared to the the workload. Stores understaffed. Staff treated differently. No work life balance. Worked as an ASM for 5 years there with 20 years experience in retail management. Work most evenings and weekend. Area Managers have no real work experience so decision making is poor. Very much a blame culture. 68% of store staff leave within their 1st year due to work load and poor working conditions

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!!
