Pros

Great Pay. Excellent Benefits. Paid holidays. Relatively open lines of communication throughout the company. This company is good at taking care of their employees basic needs.

Cons

Most Store Managers I have encountered have little management experience prior to managing their stores and spend too much time doing their subordinates job. This has lead to a manager who is too busy to develop their people and maintain their own sanity. Take this with a grain of salt. I have only encountered 6 Aldi store managers at various locations. I may have only been assigned to the bottom quartile.

Pros

The company is extremely stable and expands at a healthy rate. There is a lot they do right and they are always looking to please their customer.

Cons

There is a ceiling that you will never get past unless you started out as a District Manager right out of college. As an assistant, hard work was never rewarded. Few raises, even cost of living, were given. You lived in pretty consistent fear that you were going to make the wrong person angry (warranted or not) and lose your job. Overall unhealthy environment.
