Lidl reviews

Very fast paced work, with little or no support at all from Senior Stakeholders. A lot of micromanaging and peer pressure to achieve targets despite stores are unstructured and falling apart . No staff at all or repeated sicknesses. Company mainly focuses on cutting rather than investing , they take the soul out of their employee by increasing workload and reducing supports. Many disciplinary meetings to throw under the bus long term Managers/employees who have given everything in their sleeves, and use of investigation method to cover off senior stakeholders incompetency and inappropriate/unreasonable decision. The company is currently facing a backlash for their own bloodshed which has led many valuable managers/ employee to leave and it has created a skill gap which they will never be able to fill due to their poor business model towards their employee and approach to workload.

Very shaky company outlook following restructuring and changing direction from CEO and senior leadership; Always focused on trying to change and implement changes so rapidly, no one ever thought if it was a good idea to make these changes; Working on weekends (not every weekend, but probably once every 8-10 weeks), no one ever mentioned it during interviews because they knew people would run; Hours became very long (around ten hours) and would be crazy at stretches were lunch breaks were just not possible; Work would be very taxing to the point where you were doing work and just knew it wouldn't matter in a few days when you need to go in an opposite reaction
