Aldi job reviews

Paid break

Everything. It is extremely stressful and managers speak to staff like they are nothing. I am constantly penalised for having a physical disability as I can’t work as fast as others. Terrible place to work

Pay, flexible hours

Poor communication, narrow mindedness, views not listened to

Good environment to work in. Although that goes off the team in on the day.

Store assistants and Deputy Managers do not get the respect they deserve

Time flys as you are always looking ahead for the next task

Struggle to have a structured lifestyle

Job is very varied

Management don't care.
Customer are agressive

Unprofessional managers/area managers... horrible/abusive customers, no discount,paid only one 15 min break, lifting heavy stock, work all forms of jobs around the store, board everyday not paid enough

The team are amazing, we support each other and get stuck in to get the job done

Paid breaks, always something to do

Sweeping occasionally, lifting heavy objects

The people I work with

Long hours and short staffed

????
It used to be a good place to work for but, over the past 4 years it has deteriorated

If you want less than 30 hrs and are willing to be a drone without a family / social life , then this is the job for you.

I use to love my job but it si hard now

Just going in

Always busy, never bored, friendly environment

Working most weekends

The wages.

You work most weekends and can be quite stressful trying to meet some of the demands.

Decent paycheck

Too few staff for the amount of work, everything we do being timed, chaotic atmosphere

Pay

Stressful, lots of pressure

Getting the jobs done and sometime working as a team

Manager and away on the shop floor

While you may start at 6am, you generally finish at 2pm and therefore can enjoy the rest of the day off. You see your rota 4 weeks in advance. The pay is nice. Colleagues are usually nice people. Training is good. You get used to working fast after a while.

6AM starts. Finishing a shift at 6PM and potentially starting the next morning at 6AM. The rota constantly being changed; sometimes with only a weeks notice. Prepare to be worked, HARD. No week is the same; different days and different shifts on a weekly basis. 90% of your holidays for the next year must be booked in the November the year before; trying to plan holidays out can be frusting because of this. If you aren't sweating by the end of a shift you aren't working hard enough.

The people that I work with

Constantly working at speed and only having 1 half hour break during 10 hour shifts.

The hours work well with having a family

It’s not the ideal career

Time goes by fast, good pay rates

Stressful

When you finish your shift and go home.

Bad management. No communication. Expects you to always be available if they need extra people to come in short notice. Managers don't respect you.

My collueges and pay

Customers

Communication with customers, close to my house

Unfair management, tasks depend on who is on shift

It's rewarding and good pay

It's extremely challenging, particularly when there's reduced staff

Busy so time goes relatively quick

Everything I suffer with severe anxiety and my job is the majority of the reason

The only perk is getting to the reduced food first. The team is united - in their hatred of the job

Literally everything

It's like working with your family

Late working hours

Meeting people

Its late always

The pay for a store assistant is good for the work required, however don’t underestimate the hard graft. Deputy pay however is ridiculously low considering the amount of responsibilities, and the company tries to keep the extra £4 on top of your hourly wage when you manage the store alone to a minimum

Progression seems none existent even though they’re always advertising salaried roles. The responsibilities for a deputy are barely outweighed by an assistant manager but the pay gap is huge. Company targets are unrealistic and cripple the morale of staff

Meeting customers and certain staff

Variety and the people I work with

Nasty customers

Advanced schedule

Lots of criticism

I live close to the depot

Managers,deputies,health and safety, no discount on shopping,under paid for what we do,

The pay

Head office not caring about shop staff

The people

People calling in sick because can’t get cove

The Staff, everyone is friendly. Most arguments are just banter

Can I say Customers?

The people I work with

Horrible customers

Keeps you fit

Very very hard work, 12 hour shifts with 1 x 30 min break covering about 25 miles a day walking on shift. The better you perform the more workload you get, lack of good progression often overlooked if your face fits

Money is quite good

Stress and pressure on a daily basis

Working as a team
Dealing with customers

Rude customers

always doing something
Good pay
enjoyable surroundings

busy
sometimes stressful
fast paced

Set shifts, CPC training ect paid for by Aldi. 4 weeks annual sick pay, 4 weeks holiday pay, pension, nice trucks

The worst things are more the additional jobs that come with delivering groceries, the shop stockroom are always a mess and often no room so I end up having to make space before I can tip my trailer, the stores are under enough pressure as us drivers and the stockroom becomes our problem cause we need to get the stock off our trailer. Favouritism is also an issue amongst/between Management and Drivers.

25 hour contract

Working weekends

Work life balance

Stress at delivery point I.e stores

Pay

Management and no work life balance

Everything love working great company great managerd and environment

Just the odd lazy person

Local

People I work with

Fixed shifts

No incentives are given, management don’t treat you fairly or with any care.
