Lidl

[Haaamster]

Giving every worker £200 bonus for working during the pandemic
Good on em!

Not paying the £10 an hour like Morrisons yet, but more than the £9.10 that Waitrose pay.

I was under the impression it was Aldi that had a poor reputation as an employer, not Lidl?

Maybe they should double the price of the food in their stores then they can give the staff a couple of thousand quid bonus

It would take more than that for me to work in a covid factory.

Many can't be picky about their job opportunities. I think £200 is a great bonus and importantly proves to the shop floor that they have been thought about and discussed at board room level.

Well done Lidl and I hope others including authorities/gov follow their example

Many here work for half that.

I have made double that in 5 mins flipping a car.

That's sounds like one store with a particularly bad manager, Trev.

A good working environment always depends on who's in charge on the individual premises as much as whole company ethos.

Yeah, but how many ordinary folk would know what you know and be able to do that?

If you have enough to enjoy that choice then good on you but if your scratching around to put bread on the table then money coming, whatever the job is welcome. When the company I worked for went bust I walked the industrial estates knocking on every door and was happy to take anything on offer. I ended up delivering Viagra to pharmacies in a hundred mile radius twice a day six days a week. I was doing someone some good I suppose

Then you`ve clearly never been hard up or had to do without.

I expect any more could affect the share holders bonuses.
