Pros

They pay well. That’s it.

Cons

Working for Aldi was one of the worst decisions I’ve ever made and I deeply regret it. The culture there is the most toxic I have ever experienced. Other DMs bully the new hires and actively try to push them to quit. I was berated, humiliated, and made to feel worthless, especially after reporting sexual harassment by a peer and being told to “just try to move on and not bring it up again”. I do not have a single nice thing to say about this company. Absolutely disgusting people. The only good people are the hard working people in the stores.

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!!
