Pros

- everyone seems to enjoy being there - my manager was flexible as to when I could work - Great pay for the work you do - Lidl say they promote from within and it was true to some extent.

Cons

- my particular store did not follow the training and development plan. It pretty easy work to pick up as you go along and so not too much of a worry. - I assumed that being on the till would be rotated but that wasn't the case. Sitting on a till for 8 hours a day gets very boring. It also stagnates your development as you experience less of the other jobs that need to be done around the store. - Management does not seem to have much autonomy. Head Office decides pretty much every everything.

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
