Pros

Start off on 8.53. And alot of random hours.

Cons

Half hour break on 10 hour shift. No time for rest so you could finish a 12-10pm and be back in at 9 am to finish at 6. And so on. Never ending amount of work . You have about 5-10 jobs at ones. And customers ask you about 1000 questions a day whilst your already stupid busy. Your timed on how long it takes you to work a pallet. So a 8-9ft full of stock and that's ment to rake 30 mins whilst your getting called on till and customers won't leave you alone. You have to scan 1000 items an hour and again if not you get a written walking. I've been there for 5 months and still only have 1 shirt Not enough staff per shift so your a 1 man army with stupid expectations. No ones happy there so it's easy to fall into the mood as everyone else. You have one speed of working. And that's like sonic. You have to run/power walk everywhere. No Care to how you feel. Just get the job done evening it breaks your back.

Pros

Great coworkers, nice work flow.

Cons

You have to do a lot in an opening shift. You have x hours to stock all the pallets before open, sometimes there are a lot so you have to move quickly.

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!!
