Pros

The hourly pay is above NMW The customers are highlight to shift. They leave lovely feedback for people sometimes. I like that each store gets an aldi cake for the staff when a new store opens.

Cons

The store I worked for doesn't always pay its staff the hours they are contracted for. People with 25/30 hour contracts weren't getting that sometimes. The pay slips are obtuse and difficult to understand (it wasn't just me!) so it is difficult to check if you have been paid properly. The staff argue with each other a lot.

Pros

Dependable not presentable, show under the rug as a discount store.

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!!
