Pros

You are paid a market beating salary. Each day is different and most certainly challenging. If you can succeed here, you can anywhere. Once you get to Store manager it's very difficult to progress.

Cons

The work / life balance is not great. If an Area Manager takes a dislike to you, there is very little you can do but grit your teeth and get through it. Some of the expectations are simply not achievable.

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!!
