Pros

very good compensation, health, dental, vision, higher than average pay. hourly pay for store level staff including management.

Cons

poor adming/store relations, horrible logistics issues, incomprehensible expectations for productivity, expects all staff to follow the "lidl" way but doesn't provide leniency or support when logistics fails or if admin issues a massive "stop everything and fix" order. IT is constantly having issues and needs constant babying. company focuses deeply on pack out but does not care about the back end systems to make pack out more efficient. Scheduling is garbage and there is very minimal quality of life during push seasons. Think working 11-8 then having to come in the next day at 5-2 and having a commute time of more than an hour one way.
