Pros

There are great people at Lowe's. The company is currently better managed than many other competitors. There's a great amount of freedom to be yourself at Lowe's. Easy to get hired here.

Cons

Workplace morale and structure are deteriorating. Pay is no longer competitive. Strong female preferential treatment by management (men will be fired for same things women might only get talked to about). Climate control is corporate-controlled, not store-local. Expect to work in extreme temperatures during peaks. Staffing and hours are terribly lacking. Worrying level of penny-pinching, even going so far as to neglect bathrooms or hand sanitizer, for example.

Pros

Some amazing customers and coworkers. Tasks and systems were easy to learn. Sometimes you get lucky and have amazing ASMs and SMs. It's easy to get a good survey when you treat customers like friends, be honest about what you do and don't know, and work to learn what you don't. That goes a long way with customers. I personally truly loved my job and loved spending as much time as I could at work.

Cons

Once you are on someones S*** List they will make it possible to get rid of you. Management only follows policy when it benefits them. Some people get promoted when they have no business working in retail as a leader. The A/C in the store I worked in was always broken during the summer, which made it miserable to work. Some customers are entitled due to they way management will kiss their butts to keep from losing a sale or getting a bad review. Management will make a paper trail to write you up if you mess up or are struggling instead of helping you better yourself. Management does not care about employees' work-life balance. Management does not care if their employees are struggling with personal issues like car troubles, health issues, financial issues, etc. Management will get rid of great employees but keep people who don't pull their weight. Once I hit burnout, instead of helping me, I was punished by my managers. In turn making me hate a job I truly loved.
