Svantaggi
Unprofessional, micro managing managers. No cohesiveness, as a new employee I was made to feel like an outsider who did not belong. I was offered no training yet on my 12th day on the job was called into a little room and told that I needed to "get my KVI numbers up" when no one had ever even explained to me what a KVI number was. I noticed that the line managers spent more time watching my every move rather than leading and teaching. I was fired out of the blue less than 2 months after starting and was given a less than articulate reason as to why however, at that point, I had already started interviewing again about 2 weeks after I started when when the line manager snatched her head phones out and frowned up her face as though I were bothering her whenever I would approach to ask her a question about the work that they provided no training on. I felt mislead and almost betrayed that place was so horrible. Not to mention that I literally felt insulted at the fact that this is a whole grocery store chain yet employees have to pay for a cup of gotdarn coffee in the morning. I shouldve known that this was not the place for me when they held 2 days of orientation and did not offer the new hires so much as a cup of orange or a bagel. We had to sit in an all day orientation for 2 days and were responsible for providing our own breakfast and lunch, I'm sorry, I just thought this was so very tacky especially when their offices were so modern and nicely laid out. The facade that is Lidl. I was told that OT is optional and then after I started it suddenly became mandatory and I was even asked to come into work before going to Church one Saturday, I was floored! I worked on that Tuesday of the week they fired me from 7am till 7:30pm to help get the close done, they fired me that Friday. Go figure. Crazy part is, I got off at 3:30 and was rushing to a 4:30 interview that same day and GOT THE JOB! I was desperately trying to get out of that place. The environment was a very stressful and uncomfortable one not to mention that one of the employees that was there before me had just told me that they have a difficult time keeping people and they had just gone thru a period where several people had up and quit at the same time. They did have a temp their who seemed pretty desperate for a job so much so that the she spent her entire day boot licking the bottom of the line managers shoes so Im sure they gave her my job, I wish her well LOL!
