Confusing Company

Pros

Great pay for retail. Most stores are flexible with your schedule. Time and a half is always nice for overtime

Cons

They said in my interview that they only promote from within, which is very enticing then 2 months later they higher upper management off the street. Very rarely promote someone from the bottom to all the way to Store manager. All the ones I know now started one step below management.

Pros

The pay and benefits are great

Cons

Though the pay is great the hours aren't. The amount of employees hours the store is given depends on the productivity of your store. If the store is going through a slow period. Your hours will drastically be affected. Also you are considered an associate so as an associate you do anything and everything to keep the store going. You just don't sit there and cashier.

Pros

Closed on holidays and paid for. Paid lunch. I have no other pros but have to have 20 words...

Cons

Underpaid. Aldi workers are required to do the work of 3 people and only get paid less than minimum wage for two. They do NOT promote from within instead hire idiots off of the street that have never even been in an aldi. The district managers back the store managers no matter what and don't listen to what the shift managers say. They pay people $14 an hr to train someone making $22... It's the most backwards multi billion dollar business out there.
