Pros

Good Benefits Company Car Ok Insurance Free Gas

Cons

Directors do not lead by example. They definitely have forgotten about the bottom line. Never is enough. There is a roll out of something all the time. No time to take it all in. No work/life balance 12-15 hr days, should I say more? A lot of politics play into account to get promoted. Kind of a very secretive place to work for. You have to work one weekend per month. Very little feedback to the DM's and appreciation from their Director.

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!!
