Pros

The wages are high and as a manager you can pick your own shifts.

Cons

Long hours, high pressure, poor senior management who do not value or respect their staff. A very toxic environment to work in. Aldi Employee a lot of graduates who have little life experience and are easily manipulated into heartless yes men. They treat all staff as just an expendable problem that can be replaced when they feel the need to do so.

Pros

+ industry leading wages Associates - $12/hr, Shift Mgr - $16/hr, SMT - $23/hr, Store Manager - $75,000+/yr + great work environment + excellent training + health, dental, vision, life insurance, 401k + 40-50 hr/wk with paid overtime Very fast paced so work hours fly by. I loved working at Aldi. The pay was great! Benefits great! Was training to be a store manager so a lot was expected of me but I was totally up for it. My store manager loved my work, associates loved my fairness, customers loved me.

Cons

+ work/life balance + walked 28,000 steps/day!!! Never thought I would be fired for clocking in only minutes late!!
