Pros

They give you a nice company car to make store visits.

Cons

On call all of the time. Felt guilty for taking time off -- felt like I could not take time off. Would get calls and texts from employees during days off. Mentorship felt like hazing -- I had a it rough during my training phase so that means you should too. Very lonely -- solo job, no colleagues at your level working with you. Old school top down management structure and culture. Overall poor work culture.

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!!
