Pros

Very Organised company..Excellent time management.. good future growth... 5 weeks annual leave + time in lieu Online Training module is very helpful

Cons

So much push strategy applied on every level of day to day work.. They treat team members as slave.. And always put tremendous work pressure and targets as called aldi standards.. Inhuman physical pressure not worth it compare to its wage How much you are dedicated or hard working for the company doesn't matter, every now and then they will pull you to office they called it record of conversation.. If it is used proper way its a good strategy but they just used it to insult you nothing else.. Ridicules!!!

Pros

Great pay Hours were always there The manager at my location is a rare gem. Never had a boss quite like him. Everyone I worked with became like my family.

Cons

EXTREMELY physically demanding. I injured myself multiple times while I worked there.

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!!
