Pros

Pay is great. Good team I worked with as well. Decent products with rock bottom prices. That's all I have.

Cons

Sense of urgency at all times as well as being timed for certain tasks. Very tough to open the store especially when the truck is big and someone calls off. I understand Aldi benefits profit wise by running a real lean operation but this model ultimately leads to discontent amongst most morning staff.

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!!
