Excellent, hands-on work experience as well as excellent salary and benefits. Not a good culture or work life balance. - District Manager ALDI Employee Review

Pros

They start District Managers at 70K/yr. Their benefits are excellent compared to competitors in the industry. The hands-on work experience straight out of college is unparalled.

Cons

You will work on your days off, after you come home, when you get up in the morning, and while at the mall. You are always on call and it can be a very stressful position with all the responsibility and a very direct management style from the top down.

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!!
