Pros

Fantastic Insurance, structured environment, well known company

Cons

You are given 10+ hours of work to be completed in 8 hour shift. Training is non existent, expect to write your own notes for training. Unrealistic expectations. Socialization with co workers unacceptable.

Pros

flat organization, emphasis on efficiency, good retail pricing strategy, excellent growth

Cons

No HR department (workplace issues may not be effectively managed). A staff's personnel manager is his direct leader's direct leader (how can they effectively manage personnel issues). The Aldi Mgmt System discourages delegation among peers and back delegation which has a tendency to promote a culture of 'not my business' in certain teams. Spreadsheets galore to manage processes--business applications are archaic and not good. Change management process on systems could take years as changes are discusses internationally.
