Pros

Lidl pays well and has good benefits, and allows fully remote for any position that can be done remotely.

Cons

As of 2023 Lidl is no longer treating employees well IMO. There was a mass layoff in Feb 2023, 30% of the staff at headquarters, and there's been people regularly disappearing since then. The training was always iffy, but until 2023, as long as you were following the process as you'd been trained, it wasn't held against you if you hadn't been trained on something and therefore weren't doing it. They brought in a hatchet man who is firing people, even tho he doesn't understand the processes the actual employees do. He asks for feedback but then ignores it and if you give critical feedback or point out problems or mistakes he made because he doesn't understand a process, he holds it against you. He only likes the people who smile to his face and say nice things and agree with him.

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.
