      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).

      Great opportunity

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits (15 days off, 4 floating holidays, 7 sick days, 401k with company match, great health care) Great co-workers Good line manager Opportunity to grow Promotions if you work hard Lidl is for you if you want to grow and are looking for a great opportunity and you are not afraid to put a lot of work into your career. The company will give you endless opportunities, it is up to you if you take them. The attire at work has changed to casual business attire, yay jeans :) Everyone is very friendly as long as you are friendly too. Depending on the department the communication and also the help you receive from people is very good.

      Cons

      Currently longer hours due to the expansion. I normally work between 45 to 50 hours. When you are on salary you do not get paid overtime, hence the reason why you get a salary... when you are paid hourly you do get paid overtime. A lot of last minute request due to the very fast paced environment and because everything is getting finalized for store openings.
