Pros

Luckily, my colleagues were so supportive and nice

Cons

1. No work-life balance AT ALL. They tend to mix up your rosters from day (starts at 7) to night shifts (finishes at 9-10pm) 2. Horrible Area Manager (as a professional, not as a human), they just swap managers around whenever they like, which leaves an unstable, fragile, in-cohesive work culture 3. THE WORST IS THE CUSTOMERS, there're lovely people but I what i mean is the people that mistreat us just because "price are going up" or we "have it easy" by sitting down at the register or refuse to pack the bags at the packing bench. Other than that, thefts are such a norm and us staff can't do anything about it, one of my colleagues got assaulted when confronted the thieves.

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!!
