Pros

Working at ALDI, you get paid well and get awesome benefits. The time off and insurance is way better than previous places I've worked. If you work hard, very hard, you can get your own store.

Cons

It is difficult to grow beyond the Store Manager position. You are worked like crazy and while they say they want to provide "work-life-balance", but they come up short at times.

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!!
