Pros

The pay and benefits are great. Can easily move up in the company. Great place you young adults to start out. Great place to gain management experience and skills.

Cons

You have no social life. Your hours will vary depending on how busy the store is. Overtime happens a lot. Nice pay but again you won't have time for yourself. Prepare to work very hard everyday. The staff is so small you literally will do the work of 5 people. Prepare for sore wrists.

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!!
