Pros

The pay was incredible for a cashier starting off the bat- $10 an hour! Plus our stores closed at 8 pm, so getting home at a decent hour was a plus.

Cons

Blech. The lines were awful, so the pressure they already put on you to be as speedy as possible (they're very adamant about this) easily increases. That was without a doubt my least favorite part of the job- the stress of going fast with constant large orders. You feel bad for those customers who only have 2 or 3 items and can't help wishing there were more cashiers available for them...

Pros

You are definitely rewarded for hard work done at ALDI, and everyone is definitely a team player when it comes to getting things done.

Cons

Long hours, minimal staff makes everything you do extremely important in a good and bad way in that mistakes could hurt more than just you.

Pros

the pay is great, and the benefits are decent

Cons

Everything else. Days off come one at a time, so say goodbye to a "normal" 2 day weekend. Management is stubborn and at times hostile. The work is backbreaking and being criticized for what you do is commonplace. No sense of accomplishment in this job either... The work never varies and is never done. You don't get a chance to stand back and look at what you've accomplished because you never really accomplish anything. Think of the hamster running his ass off on the exercise wheel but never really going anywhere. That's exactly what it feels like to work at Aldi.
