Pros

Good team, good manager, flexible schedule, don't have to think about work after I clock out. I had a pleasant experience and got along with colleagues and managers. Many others though, didn't.

Cons

Can be physically challenging, fast paced, not for everyone. Many people come and go. The company had certain policies and rules that they wanted the store associates to apply and communicate to the customers, which were irrational and changed every week. That created a hostile environment and tension.

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!!
