Pros

Great salaries and benefits for full time employees.

Cons

Working a lot of extra hours. Poor work life balance. No matter how well you improve and achieve the goals set out for you it is never enough. Appreciation and praise is a quick passing thanks or good job the rest of your day is spent hearing what is wrong and what needs to be improved upon. 401K is horrible. They only contribute $2000 max per year and it takes 7 years to become 100% vested. There is extremely high turnover. Very few employees to accomplish an unfathomable amount of work. Sometimes only a manager is working in the entire store by themselves while other times you have a maximum of 3 people in the store, never more.

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!!
