Pros

Pay is great. Good team I worked with as well. Decent products with rock bottom prices. That's all I have.

Cons

Sense of urgency at all times as well as being timed for certain tasks. Very tough to open the store especially when the truck is big and someone calls off. I understand Aldi benefits profit wise by running a real lean operation but this model ultimately leads to discontent amongst most morning staff.

Pros

The pay and benefits are excellent. There is a lot of opportunities to move up in the company as well as transfer around. Might take a bit, but opportunities are there. Great team of people that you work with. Everyone is out there making sure things get done and helping each other out to do it. Has to work that way because with a reduced workforce, everyone needs to pull their weight.

Cons

As stated in the PROS, a con "could" be that you do run at 110% your whole shift. If you ever say you are bored you probably won't last long. I personally find the pace exciting and challenging. I can not sit behind a desk or register without wanting to get up and move.

Pros

Better than average starting pay for this type of job, good benefits, excellent and all-around reliable team, there is appreciation for everyone and for what they do

Cons

Very fast-paced environment, high intensity. Depending on who you are and what you like, this could be considered a con. It can be a little overwhelming at times.
