Pros

Aldi does have really good pay, as well as benefit options to choose from as a Full-Time employee. Maternity/Paternity leave, PTO as well as Sick Time is available for Full-Time employees. Promotion possibilities are available for all employees. Flexible scheduling for Part-Time employees as long as you show up consistently.

Cons

Demanding labor; physically and emotionally. The job itself is a work out, especially if you’re an opener. You will be expected to handle multiple pallets on your own, as well as manage customers once the doors open. Usually for night closers, you’ll be running with a staff of 2-4. Unless you’re hired with a very specific schedule planned out, flexibility is less common for Full-Time employees.

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!!
