Pros

If you want a job where you are always busy this is for you! Also a plus if you find working out fun; every shift is a work out. Great pay. Great Benefits.

Cons

No chance to climb the corporate ladder, they hire outside the company for higher paying jobs (MIT, DM etc.) No consistency with hours, or pay. As a shift manager (assistant manager) you will be paid only when you show up on the schedule as a manager- often time expecting to do manager job while getting paid significantly less. Often safety is an issue with large sums of cash on hand and minimal staff in the store, sometimes only you if someone is on break. You will be pushed to your limits mentally and physically and you will develop back problems if continued in this work place- extreme lifting and refusal to provide back braces or the ability to wear them. Extreme biased in hiring. Any one older than 30 will not be hired.

Pros

Great pay and benefits, 401k, paid vacation time, personal and sick days.

Cons

After working for this company for 6 years now, I've had my fair share of the Aldi Ups and Downs. YOU WILL WORK EXTREMELY HARD AND PUSH YOURSELF TO ITS LIMITS! Our store has been through 5 Store Managers, 7 District Managers and 2 Director's of Operations since I have been employed here. Each one is going to have their own ways of doing things and their expectations will be different from the last. I have had the pleasure of working with DM's that would compliment your work everyday and I've worked with Dm's that have laughed in my face. I've worked with Store Managers that have taught me very valuable ways of running my shifts and I've worked with Store Managers that our cashiers would run circles around. I guess your work experience here will depend on who your management is and their work ethic. Aldi does expect a lot from their employees which is why they pay you higher than other retail. I have seen many men hired that only lasted 3-4 days because of the amount of work to be completed in their 8 hour shift. I could sit here and type a book on my experiences at Aldi but bottom line I honestly feel like it's whoever training you that's going to determine if you like it here or not.

Pros

Decent pay and decent benefits

Cons

But a rat race to try to do all that is expected. High turnover and low moral is common
