Pros

I left the restaurant business for a career with Aldi. I knew it would quite literally mean blood, sweat, and tears. But it's nothing compared to the job satisfaction I get from knowing I've made a customer smile or laugh. I love the fact that managers will say "please" and "thankyou", and actively recognise your hard work. It's all worth it, if you're willing to be a team player. The company structure means a pay-rise twice a year. What other industry or employer can guarantee that!?

Cons

I won't lie, it is HARD WORK, and those who are afraid of that would, and should be put off by it. The rest of us don't mind, because we don't mind getting up at stupid o'clock to ensure that produce, chiller, bread and freezer look amazing. Ultimately, it is about teamwork. Future employees need to understand that if you don't put in the effort, you will never get the rewards.

Pros

They give you Lots of computer training!

Cons

All the rest. Not good practical training so you don’t get hurt on the job. District managers have no idea what us “dogs” do each and every day! No positive communication...they only tell us what they don’t like! Took away extra Sunday pay we used to get saying it compares to the industry, even though menards offers their employees $3 an hour on Saturdays AND sundays! They better check their research skills! District managers like to sit in front of the computer and watch video footage of us employees, looking for something wrong. Makes me feel like guilty until proven innocent...totally backwards! Very few people make it very long because of what it does to your body.
