Pros

Good company to work for in respect of pay. Staff are all motivated to one goal. The Aldi Perks website is good too with various discounts for other retailers (not Aldi).

Cons

Lack of staff... Yes I understand how productivity works however staff safety and stress needs to be thought off too. Vacancies haven't been filled from people that left in January despite people I know applying. There has been days with only 4 staff in the whole store expected to work delivery and man tills. Due to this there is very little work life balance and if your shift is on a Saturday or Wednesday expect to be staying at least 1 hour later!

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!!
