Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
3/5
in my experiemce each trainer would tell me something different so i would get confused about what actually needs doing but overall the assessments, skills endorsements and coursework was organised as everything you needed was available
How much support do you receive from your employer?
3/5
at the start i felt used because i was an apprentice on a lower wage and wasn't recieving much help but as time went on i felt more engaged and my employer did help out
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
as stated before ar the start due to changes in personnal trainer i didn't get much support but once i settled down with one i couldn't have asked for more support
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
4/5
my qualification has helped me out so much in my role and it has improved my knowledge amd understanding on what i need to be aiming for in my rold
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
1/5
we had a 5-aside football tournament for charity once and sometimes we go out every now and then with the rest of the staff for meals and drinks but other than that nothing
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Aldi to a friend?
Yes
Why?
well paid job
the staff are really kind and always helping each other out
you can have friendly workplace banter
they are flexible if you ever need time off for something
however i do feel the worklife balance can be really touch at times and staff should get more time off at weekends
