Pros

good pay and benefits, full time is 25 hours so you don't have to work 40 hours a week (as associate or shift manager). I seriously loved this job and the 7 people I worked with in the store were wonderful, but the work load kept getting larger and it just kept getting harder and harder to get everything done and it would get to a point where I could physically not go on.

Cons

lots of "improvements" so you have to move faster and faster to get everything done, the work is HARD physically and mentally. I worked so hard every shift I could hardly hold my steering wheel to drive myself 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!!
