Pros

- Diverse Group of Employees: From college students, to career ALDI people, and everywhere in between there is a wide range of people here and to make connections with. - Good pay for industry: Helped pay for college expenses - Mostly flexible with Part-Time: I largely got to set my preferred schedule based on my college availability, although that would change if short staffed. - Work ethic: Built a great work ethic and experiences I could talk about here at the ground level of customer service served me well in finding future employment after graduation from college

Cons

- High Turnover: Was 2nd or 3rd longest tenured by the time I left, including DM, Managers, and all shift managers. - Busy: You will not have any break aside from the scheduled break. ALDI efficiency and nature of business means there are no lulls - Shift Times: Because of efficiency they schedule lean and long. 1-9 or 6-1 for the most part.

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!!
