And what's weird about that, except for the last quoted piece, which brings aboslutely nothing to the table, no examples, nothing.
THe first two quotes are perfectly normal, legal and moral. You will be in a quest to find a company that acts any differently.In da butt.

German Management
Is it authoritarian and geared towards intimidation of employees? Perhaps some Germans could enlighten us.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

In this case it's just empty claims, unless we know what intimidation means in terms of what has happened etc.. but sure if it really has happened and crossed the lines of acceptable, then they are to blame for it. Or at least someone is.In da butt.

I'm attempting to download Das Schwarzbuch off eMule, it should contain a bit more detailed information about specific cases in the form of interviews and such. Certainly the accusations of unfair treatment of employees that are coming from every country Lidl has spread itself to can't be unfounded, and as I mentioned, I myself know people who have worked for Lidl, both of which think Lidl sucks balls and would confirm what has been brought up.Comment

And at most you'll prove that Lidl is like most big companies... hooray

However... of course it's still relevant. AND you can always go for worse practices than most companies, and that should be a special reward of some kind.In da butt.

That's discussing a poster and not the issue (though it was, of course, VJ who started it).

Has VJ possibly undergone Lidl's management training program or something?

I dl'ed the Black Book and it seems to confirm most of the claims I've made in this thread. I also let the buddy of mine who got fired read this thread and he also confirmed the "test buyers", scanning rate monitoring etc.Last edited by Meticulous Man; September 7, 2006, 16:52.Comment
