Pros

Never an issue with money. The day always moved by quickly. With the smaller store layout you always felt like you knew what was going on in your store.

Cons

The hours were endless!!!!! After five years my entire body was worn out and I slipped two discs in my back. Benefits are getting worse by the year. If you want to see your kids don't ever become a manager!

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!!
