Pros

The people were really fun and the cookouts for that LP sponsored were really good. and the BREAKS! Lowe's has a really nice lunch break and "15 minutes" rest period and were generous about them.

Cons

The hours, (not enough!) full and part-time. The scheduling, not just the changes but when someone unexpectedly calls off and you can;t come in; the coverage is stretched thin. The CUSTOMERS who come in yelling Bull at you and they really don't even know what they even want!

Pros

Decent Pay... Some Flexability for schedules. Great Bonus Potential If in operations, great advancement opportunity. Eligible for vacation pay after six months of employment. Great 401K program.

Cons

Long, long, long hours. VERY VERY High pressure with lots of threats. Doing same sale volume with less people creating larger work loads but that's the same every place right now.

Pros

After working at 3 stores in 5 years i came to love the company. They have great benifits to full and part time employees. I was able to take time off whenever i wanted and employees would help out if you needed time off at the last minute. Most stores had great management and was very fair.

Cons

Lowes is a company of store by store management. They have a very strict policy driven work enviroment. I opened two stores and bot started out following those polices. Once the store got "comfortable" and managers found there favorite employees that's when things start to fall apart. Lowes is a company of brown nosing to get ahead.
