Pros

The best thing I can say about my experience is that it's a rather interactive, young team, and that ALDI provides a lot of amenities to employees. They have good technology at your actual desk, and the lunchroom is stocked with good food, coffee, etc.

Cons

This company, at least in this department, likes to micromanage. This is the kind of place where you'll get written up--possibly even let go--for things as simple as hanging your jacket on the back of your chair instead of the coat hanger, or not locking your drawer at night (regardless of whether you keep anything in it). They are also not set up to allow for much critical thinking. They do not want people to use their skills in this position to help people; they want people to be uniform and--I hate to use the cliche--robotic. They are very secretive and interested in keeping employees in the dark until they need to know more information. Not really something I'd suggest for curious minds.

Pros

Great Pay! There is not much more then that.

Cons

The work is demanding, upper management does not care about you, very results driven, NO help when needed. No promotion from store management.

Pros

The benefits are amazing and the pay is very competitive. Most people are great to work with and they really try to be about the employee. The district managers are young and so sometimes their leadership isnt there and they act like theyre better than you but you can tell they actually care and really try to do a good job.

Cons

Morale is hit or miss. They forget what its like to be entry level and that everyone learns differently. Sometimes management is too concerned with short term success versus long term growth and stability.
