Lidl reviews

1. Be friends with your bosses boss outside of work and you'll be promoted. 2. If you're harassed or abused by your manager and you complain to HR, HR will tell them you complained about them. 3. Only the worst people get promoted - 29 year old, unexperienced and aggressive. 4. Poor decision making is often rewarded. 5. Extremely high turnover. 6. I don't understand the good pay comments -- Lidl does not pay well at all, except if you don't have any experience. 7. I don't know anyone who is happy working for Lidl, when you speak with them candidly. 8. Lidl expects you to berate your external partners who work extremely hard for you. 9. If you treat people the way Lidl wants you to treat them, your career is done. 10. I love how they post fake reviews on Glassdoor.

I've never been in an environment that was so belittling and manipulative in my entire life. Purchasing is absolutely one of the worst departments to be apart of or to work with. Most people in upper management do not have the knowledge or the experience for the current positions that they hold. Women are treated like pieces of meat and minorities are completely disregarded. As a company entering into a new country some respect should be shown to the employees who are not flown over from Europe. A lot of the issues are blamed on culture shock but the truth is they do not care to change or alter their inefficient corporate culture that eventually demotivates all employees (some sooner than later). High turnover can be expected due to growing pains in some instances, but that is not the case here. The high turnover is because most are miserable. Which is highly unfortunate considering that they haven't had much of a corporate operation here lasting more than 2 years.
