Not worth the money

Pros

They pay you very well

Cons

The pay is where it ends. They expect you to be at their every beck and call. They have no respect for people's personal lives or humanity. The business is failing because they tried to go to fast. When you ask a question of any management, the answer is almost always- I don't know, let me check. The management has no credibility.

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).
