High turnover, overworked, no work life balance. - Retail Sales Associate bei ALDI: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Things might be different in Europe but US Aldi's in Texas are something else. Understaffed on purpose so the store can have less expenses, resulting in bonuses for the store manager. We would only have two or three people during a shift. You are expected to be a cashier, organize the store, restock, sweep & mop the whole store, and clean the bathrooms, at the same time while keeping an eye on the customers who are about to pay. It's been more than two years since I have worked at that specific store and during that time I have seen at least 15 new faces because everybody quits. The schedule is all over the place and changes every week without consistency. One coworker requested one day off months in advance and they told her no without a valid reason.
