Pros

Great pay rate, the best benefits of any company I've ever worked for, family like relationship with coworkers, relatively easy to move up if you want it. I can't say enough about the pay and benefits, this company really takes care of its employees.

Cons

This job is extremely demanding physically and sometimes mentally. It is a high pressure environment and if you aren't prepared to bust your butt then don't apply. I have an excellent store manager but if you get stuck with a bad one it could make your job a lot more difficult.

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!!
