Lidl Assistent Store Manager reviews

Work life balance is nonexistent for any management position. Work is often poorly distributed in stores, those that work hard work harder then any other and will be held responsible. This company will pretend to train you but then rush anything and all things with nuance and needed knowledge. Store moral is horrid with a small select locations and stores having what I would consider a barrable environment. Hours will be divided poorly by store managers who will not plan ahead enough due to a lack of ability, time, or effort. Company communication is abysmal and store support is nonexistent. You will have a revolving head of staff as the turn over rate is absurd people will quit day one or two, and those that stay are often either desperate, deranged or looking for a promotion in all the wrong places. A poorly optimized company with a horrendous habit of running too lean to have customer service even be a thought in its employees heads. You will need to multi-task, you will be behind, and you will be held to beyond wild expectations more often then not. You will either have too many hours or not enough as an associate. As a manager you will never be able to keep up with task unless you and your team have put serious and absurd effort into training and accountability. Company response in any and all areas or issues often comes too late, and most stores that meet expectations are most likely doing something they shouldn't. Beware and be aware when working here.

Very poor where a lot of the time in such a busy store you were always kept behind past the finish time. Always had to work on tills and replenishing fruit and veg constantly without doing any management.
