Pros

Nothing was good at this company

Cons

Messy stores, co-workers were all on drug. Some came to work high or drunk. District managers treat employees like that are crap. Managers and higher ups talk poorly about the customers. Cold food is left out of the cooler for long periods of time. After working for this company, I would never buy anything from here. You rarely see anyone at the company for more than 5 years. They fire people like crazy for stupid reasons. No room for advancement

Pros

Great pay Hours were always there The manager at my location is a rare gem. Never had a boss quite like him. Everyone I worked with became like my family.

Cons

EXTREMELY physically demanding. I injured myself multiple times while I worked there.

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!!
