Pros

The only pro for this company was the pay. Way more than anywhere else will pay for a grocery store manager

Cons

Unrealistic expectations. U have to do the work of 4 people. That's how they make so much $. Can't take time off when you want. High turn over. Constantly under staffed. Discrimination. Only hire females for very physically demanding job. No room for advancement as store manager. They hire district managers straight out of college with zero retail experience yet they act like they know everything. They don't care where u live they out you wherever is good for them. No work life balance. It is a 50 hour salary position but you'll end up working 60-70 if u want to keep this horrible job.

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!!
