Topics regarding layoffs at Lowe's Cos.

Do Something

When Lowe’s put in place the initiatives to set customer limits on the Counter App, Store Managers and ASM’s were outside putting on a show that they were on the “frontlines” with their employees. Very quickly they disappeared back inside to do what... — read more 

Terminated for being too slow.... After 5 years?

They did not follow the original rules with my fiancee. He did his work at night, plus had to help unload trucks and he goes in tonight and they let him go. Some bs about paid for the day, his vacation and that's it. In the middle of a damn... — read more 

It's good Lowe's is seeing great sales numbers

There will be more money to cover all the lawsuits that will be submitted (and I'm pretty confident won) against the company by all the employees and employees' families who have contracted the virus due to the greed of those on top. Other companies... — read more 

The threat based company.

Every single day there's always someone threatening your job. All the mega millions we've made, all the hard work employees have done, all the stress endured, working with skeleton crews, customer bombardment during a pandemic, piss poor leadership... — read more 

2 days, no new posts??

Seriously, no one thinks it's odd there is nothing new posted in a pandemic? In my state, it's getting worse each day. Not sure we've peaked yet. But sales are great. Should be fun to comp next year!

Tested positive

4 days ago. i work at 0691. only response i got was to go home and call this phone number. since lowes is the only place i have gone to and have complained about the store not following rules - i have contacted the Maryland state government on... — read more 

Should I Return?

I am a senior citizen and I am out on leave until whenever this all goes away. It is a part time, get out of the house job for me. Question is should I even consider going back? It sure doesn't seem too good there. My store is raking in the cash with... — read more 

Mask rule not enforced

NY store with still rising covid counts in the county. Sign on door states that all customers must wear a mask. Store manager and ASM run away when customers come in without a mask. They refuse to question the customer. Those of us on the floor... — read more 

The Masks Make It Hard To Breathe

We should be allowed to drop the mask when we’re not with a customer & get some fresh air/oxygen!!!!!!! Especially if there’s no one within 6 ft.

Temporary shutdown

Is there a temporary shutdown if multiple associates test positive for the coronavirus? We are on our 5th associate.

Can you say hypocrite?

So on today's episode of the LoweDown, neither Joe nor Bill were wearing any type of PPE. While i get the they aren't in a store, wouldn't these 2 guys have taken the opportunity to set a good example? Joe had the audacity to say Marvin... — read more 

Not one new post in a day?

Unless I'm blocked, which happens often! How many of you Lowe's frontliners are so stressed sore, Bone's ache like never before set record sales...And watch the stock go down, pandemic or something else? I don't know, tired done dancing to this... — read more 

why let a good pandemic go to waste?

So tonight our store hit a new level of greed. Now everyone knows that we close at 7pm during this crazy thing we're battling but tonight our DM Steve had us stay open until 9. The 9o'clock close does not take affect until May 4th but we decided to... — read more 

Covid -19 Is Good For Business

Bottom line, our store has never had sales this high, period! Lowe’s is making money hand over fist. Comps are through the roof. The decision has been made that an acceptable loss of life balances with the larger spike in profits. And Lowe’s... — read more

There will be cuts after inflated "comps" subside

Once the inflates numbers fall off and record sales numbers that resulted from boredom and morally questionable advertising, if the supply chain drops or business just hits a wall as it does after the 100 days there will most definitely be cuts. This... — read more 

Will you ever feel safe at work again?

Or at least until we have a vaccine, which will not be any time soon? I'm seriously considering changing my job to something that doesn't require interaction with customers every single day because if these last several weeks have thought me... — read more 

Customers are off the rails

I guess this situation is getting to everybody, but I really wish people would realize that we are here to serve them and help them buy whatever they want and not to be their punching bags. I've lost count of how many people have yelled at me last... — read more

Curbside Craziness

I’m pulled from my department to assist with curbside pickup today. Customer calls the store for their order, another customer calls for their order. I pull both orders and head out to deliver to the vehicles. I put both on the same cart and notice... — read more 

Layoffs soon?

When will the next round of layoffs start? Before or after the next earnings report in May? What departments? Will they offer a sum of money for each year served?

Vacation time

Are there any scenarios for getting paid for vacation time when you leave Lowe's? I have hundreds of hours and plan to retire this year.

Another Essential Saturday At Lowe's

This is just stupid.. All these people buying essential flowers , grills , lawn mowers. I wish there was something that could be done about this but the Dollar is mighter than health and common sense. People coming in the store with masks on ask you... — read more

Store Managers in the break room

Like seriously you got your f—in office. I cant enjoy my 15 minute break if some pompous a– hole store manager wants to hang out in there talking stupid loud on the phone

Home Depot got an additional 160 hours

So I had an employee from Depot ask rather Lowe's gave us any additional hours. Because yesterday they were given an additional 160 hours. They now have 240 hours as full time associates to use during this time if not will be paid for those six weeks... — read more 

Commission Coming back?

I no longer work at Lowe's but stopped into my old store and the SM said they are working on bringing commission back. is there any truth to this?? Makes sense since Marvin had that in JCP

Home is what unites who?!?

I get that we need to have a marketing campaign to compete. But those NFL draft ads you just released are so freaking insulting to what you’re doing to the employees, it makes me sick. We are all barely hanging on, you keep throwing crumbs at us and... — read more 

Lowes customer App

The app is the worst idea ever. Telling customers what we have on hand. 99 percent if the counts are off and customers get p-ss-d if we are out of something. "Oh but the aoos says you have this many". A dumb–s invention.

Can’t Refuse a Customer

Turns out we can’t refuse a customer not wearing a mask. I’m on the main registers today when a customer (actually husband and wife) approach my register without masks on. I’m in a state with a “universal masking” law. Everyone wears a mask... — read more 

It’s not a mask, its a muzzle

These total c-ap black masks are laughable at best. They barely fit anyone. Because everybody has to stretch them so tightly, they are getting blisters behind their ears.There are regular surgical masks somewhere, but I’ve been told that those are... — read more
