Pros

benefits and pay are great and there is never a dull moment. great for anyone who loves seeing the results of their work by the end of shift and for those who enjoy the physical workout this job entails

Cons

chronically understaffed with constant unfulfilled promises of hiring more people; overtime becomes expected. The work is very physical and not suited for everyone.

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!!
