Pros

I worked on a great team at ALDI and was able to learn a lot in my time here.

Cons

Unfortunately, while this internship was presented as a stepping stone to full-time, the department I was in went on a hiring freeze halfway through the summer and did not hire any of the interns from our department. This was unfortunate as several of us had graduated college that spring and looked forward to the full-time roles that had been discussed during interview and onboarding.

Pros

Great pay Hours were always there The manager at my location is a rare gem. Never had a boss quite like him. Everyone I worked with became like my family.

Cons

EXTREMELY physically demanding. I injured myself multiple times while I worked there.

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!!
