Pros

Health benefits are second to no one else in retail. PTO accrual rate is generous. 401k plan is very competitive. Training WILL be good after they get the kinks worked out.

Cons

Quality of employees initially hired for new stores are lackluster. Training is a work in progress as a lot of money is wasted on classroom training that may not equate into actual results in-store. Retraining the same classroom topics to incompetent employees later on in-store most likely will be required (waste of Lidl's resources).

Pros

Intelligent engaged people, Modern offices, Decent pay, and good retirement benefits.

Cons

Growing pains of a European company modifying its business to grow its American footprint. Senior leadership was mostly European. Felt disconnected from American grocery culture.
