Lidl reviews

This company has poor and unorganized leadership. Often asked to do the same task three or four times over due to terrible oversight. Terrible place to start your career due to lack of training and development. There is conflict with European Management style and American talent, people are often belittled and embarrassed as a coaching mechanism. Company doesn't follow through on promises and commitments. Poorly trained leaders and promote people not based upon merit, lack of consistency in promotional process. Seek elsewhere if you want a stable company who invests in its people and treats them well. Major issues with diversity and lack of minorities and women in leadership. A point and blame others (other departments, international counterparts) company culture... not one of team building and inclusion.

Numbers don't lie. Extremely high turnover. Out our team of 15, only 2/3 people have been there longer than a year. Vendors/ business partners hate doing business with Lidl. Speak with any vendor doing business with them and ask about their experience. Like the vendors, they will jerk you around and show zero respect. Additionally, your name with be dragged through the mud. Complete disorganization and constant "fire drills" will make you look like you have no idea whats going on. Not a good place for anyone starting out and looking to build networks. Bait and Switch. From the time I interviewed and accepted the position, they switched the manager and brought in someone who had never managed anyone before and have zero chemistry with. They will sell you on "being a new company in the US" "early promotional" opportunities, but it is smoke and mirrors. They are yet to turn a $ and are living off Lidl Europe. Company will falter as this rate, they are already a few years behind. The Lidl US founders have already jumped ship. Lastly, it is hard to generalize everyone at Lidl, but many of the employees will go out of their way to put you down to make themselves look good. Actually the non-US employees are more respectable. Overall not a good culture. Run.
