Pros

They pay well. That’s it.

Cons

Working for Aldi was one of the worst decisions I’ve ever made and I deeply regret it. The culture there is the most toxic I have ever experienced. Other DMs bully the new hires and actively try to push them to quit. I was berated, humiliated, and made to feel worthless, especially after reporting sexual harassment by a peer and being told to “just try to move on and not bring it up again”. I do not have a single nice thing to say about this company. Absolutely disgusting people. The only good people are the hard working people in the stores.

Pros

Only retail that close at8pm.

Cons

Very limited staff.they expect work of 9 persons from 2 or max 3 persons and want every job to be done on time and perfect.people think that they will get to sit on a chair and get paid 13/hr .trust me its completely different when you get to work there.DM,S are so young abd fresh if the college they never had any professional job prior to Aldi but Aldi spends all money on them get them Audi's cell phones. Pays them very good salary but the people who actually works and run the store who are back bone of tthis company are treated like slaves.all you get at the end of the year is 40cent raise.there is No internal promotions.you work your tail off and they will bring a brand new manger from outside spend time and money on them but won't promote the person who deserves the position. Work only if you looking for a part time job because as a shift manager you get only 15hrs of shift a week.
