Pros

Aldi gives some very competitive pay. They are off major holidays and close early on a couple of days a year. For the most part you are always in doors. Your allowed to look at other stores for extra hours if you dont feel like your getting enough.

Cons

Aldi is very demanding physically and mentally. There is no down time during a day and your always rushing to keep up with the movement through the day. Usually a total of 2-3 employees working at a time, which inludes myself.

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!!
