Pros

They pay extremely well, and the hours of operation are pretty great also.

Cons

They will make you earn every sent, with real life blood and sweat. It is by far one of the most physically taxing jobs that I have ever had, and I am a religious athlete and avid runner.

Pros

Decent pay,good benefits and vacation time.

Cons

No work/life balance, hours vary too much, and if you get sick you basically have to come in to work. Management is okay but they act like Aldi is life and you're life at that. don't expect get weekends off,very rare that you do,even just one day. Favoritism/seniority is prevalent and not well hidden. If you have an emergency or get sick like stated before,you can't get off unless someone can cover your shift and no one will. Often work 6days straight with no overtime pay,it's not even available.

Pros

the hours, and store manager is usually good about giving you days off that you ask.

Cons

I was lied to when i first got hired in about getting 40 hrs, and all the over time i could possibly ever want. they would rather hire off the street than promote within. or they reward thoes with bad attitudes a new promotion just bc of their skin color.... thought aldi was all about making their employees happy, if you sat down with all of my fellow co workers that would be a different story. they schedule us 35 or less hrs a week then cut us each day, yet have postings that we are hiring for more people... oh and thanks to min. wage going up this last yr our yearly increase of 1.00 went to .35 and the company did not tell us! yes thanks for increasing your wages however that should not have effected our yearly increase. we should have gotten the $1 we were all promised and the .50 you decided to go up to match the MI state min. wage increase!!!! Rant over!!!!
