Pros

The only good thing about working for ALDI is that they pay slightly more than other companies. The only reason you will get more pay is because instead of staffing a store properly, you will be left on your own. They aren't "paying" you more, they are staffing less than the bare minimum the store needs to function properly. Instead of hiring 5 people they hire only 2, that's why you get more money.

Cons

Taking orders from children who have never had a job before but are given an District Manager position from ALDI. Every District manager I have ever come across is approximately 22-24 years old, has never even had a real job before, just graduated college, has no life experience, and has a smug sense of self entitlement. Most of them can not run a store, aren't physically strong enough to fill the job description, bark orders that they are too "good" to do themselves, and consistently put down their store managers with verbal insults. It is the most unprofessional company I have ever worked for.

Pros

Great benefits, responsibility, and opportunity for advancement.

Cons

Difficult to maintain a work life balance of any kind, but know some who managed. Not for anyone questioning there work ethic.
