Pros

I have no pros beside there's a reason they pay DMs so well is because the job is 24/7 on call and constantly dealing with impossible people.

Cons

Very long hours, understaffed at the corporate and hourly level. Very demanding and disrespecting corporate leadership. Terrible training program, thrown into the fire without help, just constant reassurance that you could be doing more despite 70 hour work week. VPs lead with fear instead of genuine leadership. Co-workers felt like strangers. Horrible culture and constant gossiping.

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!!
