Good for lonely sociopaths - Store Manager Lidl Employee Review

Upper management is European and still in denial about US challenges. They are disconnected from the stores and ignore the real issues as they don't want to address them. They come in your store and recite useless leadership slogans and grill you, while ignoring the root causes and being annoyed if you bring them up. Most of the District Managers are young, smart individuals, however, few of them led any people in their short career. Some of them would do anything just to please their masters and keep their well payed jobs. Huge attrition rate (around 200% a year), as most of associates are part time employees with no benefits and 20 hrs a week. Moral is miserable as on paper company promotes great values but don't walk the talk. Stores operate constantly under panic mode and Store Managers are expected to magically fix everything while being constantly under resourced. Expect 60-70 hrs a week and no life-work balance.
