Pros

taught me many facets of retail management. did enjoy my time there.

Cons

lack of training for course, was meant to be paid learning but do at own time. very difficult when doing such obscene hours. would hope it has since changed. Accrued leave at higher rate of pay was transferred to lower rate of pay with no warning. long hours

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!!
