Walmart is draining our cashier and night stock crews because the id--ts running this chicken sh-t outfit don't want to pay anything. Also: mo--n managers are offering new specialists $15 an hour (they wonder why they don't last long). Dimwits all... — read more
Repeat offenders
Do all stores have people who return to Lowe's once a year and then leave again after a month or two because they're reminded why they left in the first place? Or is this unique to us? I know there are few quality employers here but damn. It's even... — read more
Don’t Do The Associate Survey This Year
The Associate Survey (or whatever they’re calling it this year) is the biggest waste of time all year. They use this to manipulate us all. It’s a way to look like you give a d*mn when you really don’t. Stop giving them the information they want... — read more
I've never felt this isolated
I apologize for bringing up my personal problem, but I believe there are many more who are facing the same problem. I have been here for several months and nothing has changed significantly, I feel very isolated and not welcome from other colleagues... — read more
Do you think Lowe's will ever change strategy?
I certainly won't be here to see it, but I think this company will have to change its strategy someday because I don't believe this one now is sustainable in the long run. Part time people who have no benefits, constantly shortening hours and... — read more
Break room Refresh
Anyone actually have pics of the new break room refresh? Can’t get any help and manager demands it be done in 3 days. HELLO it takes people to help. Also what’s up the cubicle or ASA? Why can’t they just have the office.
Store Management Is Also Tired Of Corporate Changes
At our store the managers are sick of all the poor decision making and Constant changes Marvin and his minions Are making. They complain to each other behind closed doors. I recently heard the ASM’s complaining about the scheduling system and how... — read more
We’re All Disposable To Lowe’s. Stop Working So Hard.
So, I’m done being a nice employee. I’ve worked for Lowe’s for a while and I’ve simply decided to stop being a good little minion. The management changes my schedule on a dime. Even the day before I work, my schedule is changed. I can’t schedule... — read more
Lowes and PTSD
I have metal issues possibly PTSD as well as other physical issues from working at Lowes for so many years. The erratic sleep schedule, the constant bullying from ASMs and SMs, the chemical exposure (pesticide and lumber chemicals), the hard labor... — read more
FDA Approval
Ok people you will have a choice to make... The FDA is going to approve the vaccine in a few weeks and it's just a matter of time Lowes will require us to get the JAB.
Employee Participation Survey
Are they really going to read it? Or will it be worded so that we can't tell them what we really think? Multiple choice answers with nothing bad? If they allow us to tell them what we really think, corporate and management are going to get ripped... — read more
AP4Me
Look, we all work in multi-million dollar operations. We have to focus on AP4Me. I don’t understand why you people don’t understand this. I mean, you get to answer bozo questions and you can dress your “star person” up in different outfits. Quit... — read more
Time To Wake Up
It is time for the corporate big wigs to wake up and to see what is going on in the stores. Enough with the schedule visits, time for surprise visits to see how bad it really is. WAKE UP Marvin!!!
A Message for Newer PSCs
8 years ago, the PSC at my store was allowed to have multiple people trained and multiple people helping them. This was before the PSC took over credit. It was a a time when 250 changes was a big day and required all hands on deck. There was a... — read more
Customer Centric
Head cashier and internet fulfillment on customer centric now?
Lowes Fever
The store I work in has a CV19 outbreak getting larger by the day. Make sure you sell leads and details.
Slow Sales
The stores have slowed down a lot the past couple of weeks. Time for "management" to beat on specialists again. Make sure you do your AP4Me and IRP's first.
Lack of Training and Development
Lowe’s biggest opportunity is it’s lack of leadership. District Manager walks into Las Vegas stores and doesn’t have the courage to engage associates and ask what’s going on? How can we help improve? SM no different and then wonder why the stores are... — read more

Lowe's El Cheapo "Career Development"
Lowe's U and AP4me may seem frivolous...besides the managers getting bonuses for the rank-and-files' participation. But look on the bright side. Lowe's U and AP4Me are good ways to NOT be on the madhouse sales floor while being paid. Take a lot of... — read more
Censors??? Is Marvin here?
Why is it that I have seen posts, relevant ones at that no longer appear the next day? Is this site monitored by company plants who censor those posts???
Slowing Down
Business has dropped off this week. Can’t sell enough leads and details to make up for it. The pipeline is drying up. Make sure you do your AP4Me and Lowe’s U. We’ll all be eliminated soon.
The jab
Will they mandate the jab at Lowe’s?
I was in for a shock
I spent the last 10 years of my life in retail. I came from a well-known chain and didn’t think there could be any company that could have worse management and I am actually shocked that management at my location has proven me wrong. I left a month... — read more
All In Or All OUT
Either you make customers wear masks, or you drop the employee mask mandate. Can't go both ways. Bring your stupid signs back out, and put the fckg screens back up you id--ts. Reduce the store hours also.
Duplicitous Mo--ns
It's funny how the ones who are saying ,"Lowe's can't make me get a vaccine", are the same ones who are saying, "Go ahead and wear the mask, it's no big deal."
Do Not Wear a Mask!
Do not wear a mask! Especially if customers are allowed to enter without one. I AM DONE!
Masks again
Well we now have to wear masks again. How stupid. Company shoukd make it simple. Either get the vaccine or yiu can't work. Give those people 10 days. Those who got it shouldn't suffer cause of those who are keeping the virus alive.
Typical
First weekday of the new quarter so first thing in the morning huddle they mention AP4ME. Instead of having enough people on the floor to help customers they worry about such garbage. And they worry why people are leaving the stores in droves. — read more

Delegate to the Back of my A-s
So the Store Manger delegates to the inexperienced ASM’s that now permeate throughout the markets, who rely on the Department Mgrs. who either have no CSA’s to delegate to, or they try to throw it on the shoulders of the Specialists who get pulled in... — read more
To what extent is online shopping now more important?
How much more important is online shopping for a company at the moment than store level sales?
Just looking busy
At first I was really bothered by people who pretend to be busy all day while I work hard, trying to help customers, trying to my keep my job, etc. Now I'm just trying to look busy. Why? Because it's not worth the effort at Lowe's. Here, if you... — read more

Lowe's Lawyered Up
They finally realized im not going away and hired an attorney. Guess all my recordings are gonna pay off.
Lack of staffing: big saving or a big loss?
The staggering amount of money Lowe's is losing due to lack of staffing far, FAR, F-A-R exceeds the pittince they are saving on payroll. I am heartbroken to see the company that I devoted more than a decade of my life to going down in flames like... — read more
How to make it easier to endure a working day at Lowe’s?
I hope I don't have to be here much longer. It's getting harder every day. I try to think positively and find some way to make it easier for me to endure a day at the store. For now, the only thing that helps me is when I think one of the many apps... — read more
Lowes corporate can eat a bag of richards

Lowe's U...waste of time...no one cares
