Pros

Good pay, good progression for those willing to work 60+ hours a week with no complaints, can travel across country

Cons

Was told it would be no more than 48hours when joined, any work you work over that would be paid back in time back. Worked a minimum of 55 hours every week and never seen any time back or extra pay. when I Left owed over 100 hours and didn't see any extra. Be prepared to work endless hours for the pay you earn. very much a culture of don't leave until everythings finshed. Countless shifts from 11am to 2,3am to be back in at 6 next morning

Pros

Great pay Hours were always there The manager at my location is a rare gem. Never had a boss quite like him. Everyone I worked with became like my family.

Cons

EXTREMELY physically demanding. I injured myself multiple times while I worked there.

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!!
