Pressure at Aldi Berlin: Cashiers in the race against time!

Absolute shock record at Aldi in Berlin! Behind the scenes of one of the largest discounter in Germany is a merciless pressure on the employees, which is no longer portable. An worker from the capital has now dared to disclose the shocking internal requirements - and the facts are amazing!

"Did you know that we are constantly under observation in the cash register?" Recorded the cashier. An invisible counter tactlessly recorded in the background how quickly the goods of each individual customer are processed. The aim is to get over 3,000 attacks per hour - otherwise it is hailing red notes and unpleasant conversations with management. "It is a permanent race against time. You have to fling the goods into the car to make it in time," explains the employee with frustrated undertone.

Aldi under pressure - is that still human?

The stress becomes unbearable: Even when packing, the customer needs too long, it is counted towards the time of the cashier. "Searching for change makes the situation worse - and everything counts!" In the past there were short breaks with an "intermediate amount", but this regulation is a passé. The discounter saves more and more time, which further increases the pressure on the workforce. "You expect to be faster than a machine," complains the Berliner. The working atmosphere is increasingly taking a negative impact on customer service - and complaints on the part of the buyers are inevitable!

Aldi reacts to the promise to further develop the employees. A company spokesman explains that well -trained and satisfied employees are important for the success of the company. But reality speaks a different language: dissatisfied cashiers are the reason why it comes to dismissal. Nevertheless, the group tries to reassure the audience with the argument, the long stay of the employee shows the overall good satisfaction. It remains to be seen whether this corresponds to the truth, because the burden on employees seems to be really unbearable.
