Lidl reviews

When on the till you have to meet an item per second time limit Long hours (One time when the big boss came to visit we had to stay until 1AM to make sure everything was perfect... I had to start another 10 hour shift at 6AM) I was also employed on a 16 hour contract but found myself working 40 hours every week a couple of weeks after starting. Expected to do everything. At once. Not enough staff to cover

-Managers are compensated handsomely, even though they may have absolutely no relevant work experience. Lower-level employees are considered second-class citizens and are paid poorly in comparison, especially considering that the DC metro area is one of the most expensive areas in the country. -Incredibly demanding and demeaning senior management. Belittlement and intimidation are used quite often. Never in my life have I been made to feel so completely worthless and unintelligent. So much for "Respect"... -Complete disregard of many local rules and regulations -The company does a fabulous job of tugging on the heart strings of young, naive college grads ("Travel!", "Startups!", "Success!", "Change the Grocery Industry Forever!"). While all companies love to embellish how great they are, Lidl's propaganda machine is especially well-oiled. At the end of the day, no matter how hard this company tries to sell themselves as a hip and trendy startup, it is important to remember that they are just a big grocery chain run by narcissists.
