Pros

Well, I was able to pay the rent, but that's about it

Cons

Where do I begin? The management seems to enjoy treating their employees like a bunch of first graders. Rediculous hours, constant beratement and threats of termination. The only training I got was how to not get the store sued. Department managers demanding I work in their departments, not my own, then I would be reprimanded for leaving my post. The management at these stores really needs to pull it together and get off the ego trip.

Pros

If you want to be lazy it's perfect 👌

Cons

This is the worst company I have EVER worked for, the worst I've ever been treated by an employer. So bad it caused me to be suicidal. The managers are incompetent. They are not leaders, they do not care about your wellbeing, just what they can get out of you. If you don't get credit cards you get yelled at. I'm seen so many employees just walk out because of that reason alone. I begged for full time, never gave it to me, but still give it to new hires. Which caused my kids and I to have no health insurance. Constantly changing my schedule. Which causes you to never be able to make any plans, or have a life. Denied my leave of absence for surgery as I'm literally laying in bed waiting to get surgery. Which was still dinged as a call out. Eventually leading me to a final, to finally get fired from the hell hole that is Lowes. I was smiling getting fired, walked out the door and felt so much relief. Lowes blows.
