Pros

The pay for running a unit that was 16, 000 sq ft was good, about 70k per year after bonus

Cons

You do it all! From scrubbing toilets, to mopping floors. I stocked the grocery, dairy, frozen, meat, produce, bread etc and all while being the second cashier in the store when needed. Like I said the pay is attractive but the work load and expectations are high, maybe unrealistic for one person on a daily basis. .

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!!
