Pros
The pay is good, better than most retail stores. My sm works with us on our flexibility due to life changes. You end up having a good management team.
Cons
If you're looking to work at aldi be sure to know more about how things are ran. No fixed schedules, You either open or close the store and some times you may do a clopen. If the closing asm calls out, be ready to run a double .A lot of pressure from the DM to complete kpis and goals, continously asking sm to cut hours to hit a metrict called "efficiency" which does not help us at all having to send someone home early running the store with 3-4 ppl including yourself. Management has a lot of pressure and the workload and expectations keep increasing, you do multiple functions all while trying to achieve your manager duties. It's very physical, hard, heavy work. Curbside is a killer forcing you to run your shift even more tighter, 3 people working one as a cashier, one running curbside and you being the back up cashier and if the lines gets too long well.... unfortunately we can't do much about it and have to make people wait longer than usual.
