Pros

Great pay, benefits are some of the best out there. The hours are better than most. You need to have availability from 5 AM to 10 PM.

Cons

This job entails a lot of physical labor. You will be responsible for down-stacking pallets in order to stock the store. This is a daily occurrence. Everyone in the store must be able to do this. It is not just a sit down cashier job. Not a lot of opportunity for promotions.

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!!
