Pros

Good benefits. Great shift schedules. Most of the team members and coaches (supervisors) are great!

Cons

Senior management stinks. Favoritism is a fast track! Great opportunity for team members to advance to management, but once you get there.....prepare to play along and shut up or you'll never get ahead. Team members run the place, since management is so concerned about keeping the union out. Have an accident? Get a write-up! Put something away wrong? Get a write-up? Pick the wrong item? Get a write-up. One minute late for work? Get a write-up! Measured standards (Performance Management!) under 100%? Get a write-up! Look at someone wrong? That's harrassment! Get fired! This place NEEDS a union!

Pros

A lot of possibilities for career growth. Equal opportunity to anyone who shows they are willing to work hard and take instructions well. I have always felt for the most part that the right people were getting promotions and the right people were not getting promotions. Management seems to quickly pick up on the accociates who are working hard and making Lowe's a better working environment.

Cons

Retail hours are awful. They offer a rotation schedule to the hourly employees, just one weekend a month and one of the weeks you get off Sunday and Friday. Pretty sorry. Also, at my current store we have to do an immature cheerleader like Lowe's cheer. It's rather embarrassing and makes me feel like i'm working somewhere i wish i wasn't.
