      Pros

      Work with Lowe's associates to drive sales. I loved the flexibility that the job offers. This is a great position that can lead to further opportunities with other companies.

      Cons

      Micro manage sales force. Trying to push sales by doing things that take you away from the paint isle. The company forces you to work 30 mandatory Saturdays many of which revolve around holidays in the summer.

      Pros

      I'm on my 4th role in 8 years, so there has been a continuous supply of new opportunities, both to grow and progress in my career. Management has generally been responsive to employees. Benefits are middle of the road - good, but not great. The 401(k) match is strong. Work/life balance has been good, but this is largely based on the managers/departments I've worked in.

      Cons

      Not the most progressive company. It took quite a while to get same-sex partner benefits (I want to say either 2013 or 2014). Work from home is again hit and miss, depending on your department and manager. Only other concern I would say is the risk of being in a business unit that get's divested. The company is generally moving toward a coatings-centric company, so I've lost co-workers to other companies as their business unit is sold and they become part of another company.
