Pros

Decent pay, 5%match on retirement contributions, affordable insurance and benefits.

Cons

You do everything-stocking, cashiering, cleaning...even resetting the entire store when they want to "remodel." FT associates are also required open availability from 5am-10pm 7 days a week so you really can't change your availability or have a say unless you are part time. There's also time requirements as part of the SOPs that need to be met that are hard to meet, especially when you have a bigger store. Lean business model = sometimes there's two people, sometimes there's more than five, but somehow most days it feels like there's never enough.

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!!
