    I work for aldi currently and have for the past 3 years. My store is absolutely trash. Managers lack basic human decency, expect way too much while also insulting you the entire time and offer no motivation or incentives. However- I’ve worked at many other locations all of which are great to work for. Managers are encouraging and helpful, talk to you like a human being, and engage in personal conversations. My store is awful, but it depends on where you go.

    • @gafalcon7
      @gafalcon7  5 років тому +4

      Just remember, that you have learn to deal with and a lot crap unfortunately, but some times the best thing to do in those situations is talk to you're store manager about the issues are facing with the team and him or her personally that's only way you are every going to have resolutions. If the problem does not get solved, take it to the DM (District Manager) and then go up further from there. While me being a Shift Manager I have to learn to deal with a lot of BS myself, but I take it and apply it and try my every best to learn from it and to take action and keep my associates working efficiently as possible.

    I was a deputy manager at Aldi for 4 years. Trust me when i tell you the job is not good or enjoyable. The money and your fellow staff members are the only reason you would want to stay working there.
    Your contract effectively says you cannot speak negatively about the company on social media. I am NOT saying that what this man is saying is false but do take it with a grain on salt. There is alot more issues that alot of people do not speak on.
    He does say alot of true points in this video such as the fast paced environments, and the goals you have to reach and how its not for everyone etc. Also im from the UK so things may be different. If you are from the UK avoid this company.
    This is a decent video and i appreciate his enthusiasm about his job. I wish you the best in your career my friend!😁

      @@snakedocter1984 it is a very physical job. They want people that can physically do the work of 5 people almost simultaneously. Their way of keeping prices down is to keep staffing cost low. That means the staff have to work ALOT harder and faster than the staff in a regular supermarket.
      Statistically older people can't work to that pace, thats why they employ alot of younger people.
      Aswell as this they like to promote from within, if they can groom an 18 year old employee to their perfect staff member, 3 years down the line they will be the best match for promotion. If they hier a person that has more working experience and is slightly older that person is more in there own ways and its a lot harder for them to shape that person into the employee they really want.
      Hope that makes sense haha.

    I just had an interview today. Went well. I've been in customer service for an accumulative 10 years, and I hope to christ they don't call me saying I got the job. Customer service/sales is stressful enough without having to be timed on all of your duties throughout the day. Fuck that. I have a job I can always go back to, but it wouldn't be full-time, and the hours are 20 per week if I'm lucky. If you weren't timed and graded on everything you did at Aldi's, I feel applying wouldn't be nearly as intimidating mentally. If i do get the job, the only reason I hope I can make it work, is so my wife can go down to part-time, and I can take care of her for a change. I'd rather do the same thing every day on an assembly line than be in a soul-sucking customer service job again. Fuck me.

I'm getting paid better as a store associate at aldi, than I did as a shift manager at walgreens. It also helps that I moved from a city with very high foot traffic to a suburb with much less. I'm used to the pace and actually feel compensated for it.

    As a current employee im going to share my experience so far. Pros - you receive a good pay and earn well above the minimum wage, if you are someone looking to earn every penny you can get then they pay you reasonably well. Cons. One of the most depressing, stressful and frustrating places youll ever work. Spoken to like trash and always left stressed and frustrated. Hours are long and if your in your 20s and 30s your social time is next to non-existing. You are made to work long hours most weekends and you receive no appreciation. For every one compliment you receive you'll receive 20/30 criticisms . Expectations are way too high and most employees are or look depressed.

    Hi, Casey. I'm looking for a job and came across an ad for full-time associate at my local Aldi. I have 17 years experience working retail, but after I graduated college, I quit my job at Publix because they would not give me full-time hours. To be honest, my body needed the rest from the strain of unloading trucks and bending over constantly.
    At 36, I haven't had any luck finding a steady, good-paying job and I need something to keep up with the bills. I take Humira and other supplements for arthritis and joint pain.

    From a UK perspective Aldi is the best retailer to work for, pace is still a major factor when stocking but not so much speed on the tills these days we're encouraged to adjust pace to suit customers.
    A full pallet of mixed goods your expected to take 30 min to put out, a mixed cage 15, a full pallet of bread 20mins.
    There isn't one person one job you're trained on it all I.e if your tills getting quiet jump off and stock shelves, tidy up, do baskets etc until you hear your till called on again.

      To answe you're questions are as follows:
      1. Mostly during a group interview they will walk you around the store and to get the feel of how we do things at ALDI and than you will get a piece of paper to do a survey and than might be called into a other interview with the District Manager (DM) than possibly store manager all in the same day.
      2. Just dress casual wear. Like you we're saying.
      3. During group interviews, there is about 3 to 5 people maybe more, depending on the District Manager. When you go for you're group interview, don't standout like others, let the DM talk and you do a little. That will show them you're interested.

    Hi, I know this video is posted a year ago but maybe you can read this. I'll have my 3rd interview tomorrow at Aldi, what should I expect? I asked the district manager on my second personal interview if it was the last and she said yes. Few days later i got a call from different manager (Same location) and she's asking for another interview. I'm confused? What are the possible questions they may ask? Please help i would really like to work at Aldi.

The funny thing is I understand her perspective, but will never understand why she treats her employees like crap. I feel she takes out her frustration and anger on her employees because she doesn't have another outlet for her frustration at the company. That said, I DONT FUCKING CARE! DO NOT bite the hand that feeds you! She has 4 awesome assistants and constantly puts them down in public. She has no skills at training. She expects them to run their shifts, but constantly overrides them, then gets mad when they don't run their shifts. What the hell? Done and Done!

    • @gafalcon7
      @gafalcon7  4 роки тому +1

      Here are some tips that might help you!
      1. Don't expect to be fast and remember codes on your first day, working on getting faster every time you work and remember codes takes time as well.
      2. Take your time when it comes to cash-handling.
      3. Slow down when you need, you need too.
      4. Encourage pre-inserting for card transactions, it will make your ring speed very high and efficiently.
      5. You should have a computer training on how to run the register but a manager should help you as well known as "Going Shopping"
      Those are some helpful tips, hope it helps and Welcome to ALDI!

      @@novemberrain2184 Like I said before, everything takes time including learning the register and remembering codes as well. That's why I believe it should take at least 6 months or so (maybe longer for you) to really learn everything and that's why you have managers and other associates to help you. If your store manager and or District Manager expect you to be fast on your first month, then that's crazy talk in my book. Just take your time and teach yourself and by other coworkers to learn how to get faster. You will always have printed sheet on how of the codes as well.
