      Pros

      The company allows you to grow and develop as it grows and develops. As long as you are willing to move with the times it's a fantastic environment to cultivate your skills as a manager. Career progression is eveident in every store, i myself began my career as a customer assistant. Fantastic new benefits package recently unveiled for store managers.

      Cons

      Hard physical work, very rigid procedures to adhere to. You get out what you put in basically.

      Pros

      I started my career with lidl 6 years ago as a store assistant with no previous retail experience. Within 3 months i was training to be a duty manager. I was always told if i work hard and show how much i want a career out of this,then progression will happen. Within 3 years i was promoted to deputy manager,taking me to salary wage,and offering further security in my life..With excellent levels of training provided i have now moved up to store manager level..In 6 years this company has taken me from bottom to top at store level..I have no degree, no friends in high places ..it was just hard work and dedication that got me to this position..The negative comments aimed at my company are usually from the same individuals that show no passion or effort when in store..

      Cons

      It can be tough in stores at times as our reputation as a retailer is always increasing,meaning standards must be lifted to match this attention.
