Great Pay, but with a price

Pros

Great Pay and Great Benefits

Cons

Say goodbye to your personal life. Store manager is the top position you can reach, they don't hire District Manager from within the company. Make sure you cover up all of your tattoos, (new rule, it was perfectly fine for the first 5 years with the company). Battling with the DM for days off on the calendar. No back to back days off allowed for managers, even if its not a weekend.

Pros

great benefits, wonderful pay, fun employees

Cons

always to few people in the store no matter the store there should always be at least 4 people to run the store. expectations are way to high for the amount of people in the store at any one time(2 to 3), also the pay for shift managers is split into your cashier wage and you get +4.50 on shifts that you are running, but are expected to be management all the time. you also can not have any facial hair, not even clean shaven, at this store. on any shift you work you have to be clean shaven.

Pros

Great salary and vacation schedule.

Cons

No choice on benefits plan...one size fits all. Can't go anywhere in th company unless you have been a DM. Archaic technology. Don't allow thinking outside the box...it's the Aldi way or nothing. No defined career path for anyone.
