It is well-known that Aldi pays its emloyees pretty well (at least in the usual European countries). But they have few employees per shop. These are expected to work really hard and long hours and are expected to do everything necessary to keep the shop running (complaining that something is not part of what you were hired for is not allowed). In German TV there have been complaints about the hard work and long working hours, but none about the pay. The pay is even so good that when Aldi expanded to Switzerland, there were lots of people who feared or complained preliminarily that Aldi would reduce the average wage level of the region.
