    Except that Aldi US has different worker rights from it’s European locations. Basically they have what is required by their local jurisdictions and that’s about it.

    They got rid of DEI language when the administration changed, employment is at-will in at-will states (you can be fired without cause), Time off is only guaranteed if the state requires it to be (unlike in Europe; doing a bit of research US Aldi typically offers 7 days of leave compared to 29 in the UK), healthcare is tied to the job just like the rest of the US, and they don’t have a corporate minimum wage so it’s just market competitive.

    Let me know if you know something about the US Aldi that I am missing, but as I understand it basically the only thing going for US Aldi is they let their cashiers sit down.
