Pros

Pay was higher than most places Coworkers were cool Options to move up Location of store was good Some of the best health insurance I've had through an employer

Cons

Higher ups don't really care about anything but the numbers If your managers aren't also cool and professional, it will not be a good time They keep track of your speed in almost everything (scan rates, curbside/Instacart, how long it takes you to stock or re-stock) They want you to have a work life balance but you HAVE to have an open schedule in order to be full time, and because of that you'll almost never be scheduled to work the same time every day

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!!
