Pros

Worked for Lidl as a store manager for over 11 years. Like every other company, I had my moments of pain, but the rewards of being responsible for your own store, leading and developing a team around you are great. If your looking for an easy role..... then avoid, but if you are looking for a different challenge on a daily basis, strive under pressure and an ever changing environment, this is the place for you. Guaranteed job satisfaction.

Cons

The hours can be long, but only if you are unable to plan. The pressures are great with complete responsibility for your business, however the pressure only builds if you fail to adapt and move with the times.

Pros

Discount is the only pro I can think about. Not even the wage is a pro as you are asked to give up on your private life.

Cons

Everything. The shop manager was the rudest person I have ever met I my life, dreadful, chav, fake, incapable of speaking to her staff.
