Pros

You are well paid in the role, but you will work for your money. The work is structured, so once you know what you are doing, you will be able to plan ahead. The interview process was good, and the team were very honest and upfront about what the role would look like.

Cons

The work is very monotonous and lonely. You do not really interact with your colleagues, apart from to discuss the next task. You will always be behind and under pressure and never get your job finished. The hours are long, and when you finish work you will be too knackered to do much!

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!!
