Pros

Great pay and benefits. keeps you busy

Cons

Overwork employees. Expect far too much than humanely possible without proper training. Even when weekly displays required two person liftings they would only allow one person who acted as manager, display setter, and cashier as well as keeping up with floor by themselves and then higher management would constantly put down employees and managers even if they didn't notice the tiny piece of squished gum on the floor in aisle two. employees are also responsible for deep cleaning the store because the company wants to save money by not hiring cleaning crew. I understand the pay is great but to ask as much as they do in the allotted time is completely crazy and many employees become injured or sick from working so much. there is also little to no compassion for employees who have family emergencies. I.e my son was hospitalized and having surgery and while I was in the hospital with him my phone would not stop ringing from my manager and district manager telling me that there was no one to take my shifts and I needed to come in. Also store manager is the highest position to earn in the company Once you start as cashier.

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!!
