      Pros

      Competitive pay for employees Benefits package on par with other leading retailers Shorter operating hours, with late openings and early closures Comprehensive training programs Strong networking opportunities

      Lack of transparency in communication Inconsistent professionalism from upper management The discrepancy between the training provided and what is advertised Poor work-life balance Insufficient support from upper management Negative employee attitudes and lack of follow-through Limited opportunities for upward mobility for Assistant Store Managers (ASMs), leading to sabotage of Store Manager Trainees

      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!!
