Pros

Decent place to work, Well decent enough of place to work where you can survive. Others that worked there we friendly and nice(Some were not)...

Cons

Well, all you cons you can think of for working for retail is there for sure; form really rude customer to lazy management. The guy who did my interview was a real donkey, rude and full of him self. Bare in mind that this is one store in the entire chain so don't take my experience with Lidl as reflection of the company. Anyone wondering where this store is, well it's in Ilford; close by to the station....

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
