Get ready to work

This place will work you to your core, only running the store off of about 5 associates a day, truck is usually brutal. Expecting a 25 pallet truck done in three hours is insane

Worst job ever

They overwork you. They expect so much to be done in a little time frame and act like it’s the end of the world when you can’t complete a job made for multiple people in 3 hours. It’s insane. They have no respect for their employees.

Lots expected, financial reward is good

High Focus on KPIs and very competitive within the business to be the best, which can lead to a lot of pressure to perform. Salary is excellent for the role you do, a lot of traditional store manager responsibilities are taken by the area manager.

Pros

Salary

Cons

Pressure

Lack of time

Too much work and not enough hours in store which results in late nights on the close shift. Expectations are perfection when it isn’t possible. Days go quickly though as always busy.

Waste of 4 years

What is the best part of working at the company?The pay is decent and the benefits are as well. However, this company will chew you up and spit you out. They expect loyalty but give none in return. Some managers are just sadistic, evil people who won't train you and yet expect you to know everything. I wasted 4 years.What is the most stressful part about working at the company?The lack of training and support from management.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Lots of favoritism and no real accountability. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Very busy and always short staffed. Closed with myself and one other associate frequently, getting reprimanded for working overtime but had I left on time daily tasks would have gone undone leading to a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. Not worth the stress.

Not suitable for anyone with mental health issues

Only lasted 5 months as not shown what to do from the start. Upper management were bullies and made anxiety worse. Meant to work the job of 4 people with unrealistic target times. In my probation I was constantly threatened being fired or i was not listening. I have mental health problems now im worse due to this job.

Mala……

Mi resumen es que cuando entras en la tienda, NO PARAS! En todos los supermercados la fruta lo pesan los clientes o en las cajas tienes que pensarlo y ticar el código de fruta, verdura etc… aquí no aquí viene una clienta con 2 manzanas y 3 naranjas y tú tienes que saberte el código de memoria y ticarlo en la caja ejemplo naranja 243 y ticarlo, pero escucha tienes que hacerlo con la fruta verdura pan, leche vamos más de 100 códigos y encima grabartelos…. No se modernizan….

If you need the money?

A good place for someone young to learn and get into the swing of things, you will stay busy 100% of the time. A good challenge for 18-25 but after that you gonna see its too much work.

They’ve been getting better

Pays good and within last 5 years they’ve started caring about employees. Very hard work. There is no time off while working it’s nonstop constant work.

Hard work but good pay

It's not for the weak. Very physical work as well as very emotionally and mentally draining. Hard to get weekend time off. Hard to balance work/life.

Pros

Decent pau

Cons

Short staffed, mentally draining, physically draining, no weekends off

Productive

You’re not just positioned in one area but trained in all areas needed to manage the store which is a good thing. The tidiness and fast paced environment of the store is what makes working here a great experience as a store associate.

Great benefits and pay, terrible management

I worked for the Aldi distribution center for several years. The pay, and the benefits are fantastic. I think Aldi as a company are good to work for, but the Center Valley distribution center is so poorly managed. Managers don't communicate, its constantly a madhouse, hours all over the place, no consistency with the rules and policy's. Rules only apply to certain people. Definite favoritism from the leadership, and mass amounts of inappropriate relationships between management and employees. It felt extremely unsafe working in the warehouse, it is overcrowded and the forklift drivers are reckless.

Pros

Benefits, Pay

Cons

Short breaks, rude managers, unprofessionalism, inconsistent hours, unsafe working environment
