Run as fast and as far as you can from Lidl - Recensione dipendente - District Manager presso Lidl

Complete fear based tyrannical culture. Lidl lacks planning and organization from the top down which results in a constant state of chaos with an overwhelming identity crisis. Zero work life balance. Your job will be threatened if you don't comply with their requests to work 7 days per week. Your approved PTO will be denied multiple times per year because "the needs of the business come first". Lidl's expectation is perfect stores at all times with 500 total hours budgeted per store in your district to execute perfection. HR leaders have non-existent HR backgrounds and will discuss your confidential conversations with your peers and promote targeting through your line manager if you air a grievance. There is one "token" ethnic choice per region with the overwhelming majority being European's who are indoctrinated into their mentality, if you are an American, you are the minority and will be treated as such. It will take you years to unlearn the bad management styles they force you to adopt in order to keep your job. Trust me when I say you do not want to work here.
