Pros

The pay is good if you are working the overtime.

Cons

The first thing you will hear is that ALDI goes through a high amount of Manager Trainees . District Managers change and are directly hired with no experience.

Pros

Compensation is great and they give you a car.

Cons

they literally exploit you, make you feel like you don't know what your are doing and it doesn't matter the amount of hours you work a week (even if it is 80+) they still don't think that you are doing enough. They say they care about employees but they don't, not in the minimum.

Pros

Great pay. Company continues to do well and expand which should mean job security and growth opportunities. If you’re lucky enough to work for a good leader that isn’t just out for themselves you might actually enjoy working there.

Cons

The culture in the Buying department is terrible. The assistants have an “us against them” feel when it comes to directors. Everyone is constantly on edge and stressed out and you feel it walking around there. A lot of “type A” personalities with the majority of folks just out for themselves. There is very little collaboration and teamwork in the department. They definitely tried to improve the collaboration but always seemed to fail. The department has gotten too big and focuses shift almost weekly. You’re constantly having to change shift, do double work and ultimately just do what your leader wants anyway. Nine times out of ten you feel like an overpaid assistant.
