Funny after 8pm and on weekends you don't see the Lowes for Life phoneys. I guess the optics are for 9-5 business crowd and stock market pundits. How do I look Marv?

These two activist Hedge Funds are behind all the Layoffs and Cost Cutting. That’s how they make their money! They buy a large block of company stock, install a new CEO Puppet like Marvin Ellison to front for them. Then they proceed to cut cost... — read more 

I have been thinking about the whole Joe McFarland incident and as a DS in a store with a commandant style store manager and a napoleonic DM I think this thing is going to hit management in the stores hard. I think Marvin, Joe, and Jenny Webs are... — read more 

I want to know how many other stores are dealing with the hiring HR nightmare. Since the change in the HR process, our staffing levels have plummeted and I seriously doubt that we’ll be anywhere near the same number of associates in the few couple of... — read more

Hello all, after reading the Washington Post story about Joe MacFarland's comments and seeing some of the backlash that has happened I got a bit curious as to the attention being brought on Lowe’s. It occurred to me though that the only way this info... — read more 

Lowe’s used to be packed and Depot was a ghost town. Now Depot is packed and Lowe’s is moderately busy. Home Depot has a big barbecue and is grilling hamburgers and hot dogs for their customers m. When I walked in a Home Depot manager said, “don’t... — read more 

All of our FSAs & assemblers were called at home and offered positions - they said they were righting a wrong. Is this company wide - I hope so.

I am (was) a specialist helping in millwork, flooring and lumber. For the last time will this ego driven store manager talk down to me like I was a child. I work at Lowes because I enjoy the job. I enjoy helping older customers that are not sure... — read more 

Thought I’ve seen everything in retail, while working at Walmart, but now that I’ve been a Lowe’s employee I have to say that this company is reaching an ultimate low in how it treats its employees. Such a toxic environment filled with constant... — read more 

The Outrage grows! Not one word, apology, or explanation for McFarland’s Racial Slur against Hispanics!!! And they think we’ll just shut up and swallow this? NOT GOING TO HAPPEN MARV!!!

To all the Marvin and Joe fan's out there. If push came to shove, do you think either of them would have your back in a situation?

How and why have so many comments on these posts gotten deleted In the last couple of days?

The only criticism I have right now about Lowe's is this. A regional team of 20 or so came to our store yesterday. They didn't acknowledge the people on the floor, working with customers. They didn't even speak to the associates. There was one... — read more 

Who has more details? Lowe's RTM Clerk - Hourly Pay Info is needed. Please share it. Thank you!

Lowe's is a corporation and there are many aspects involved in that entity. Complaining or even think about u unionizing is a waste of your time and emotional energy. Change is certainly constant in business, especially now in this transition to... — read more

Let’s be realistic, we’re not growing, we’re cutting cost to the maximum, and that’s the main reason why numbers appear good. Lowe’s, at least under this leadership fails to produce any real value. Think it’s fair to ask, how many more employees need... — read more

Don't you think we should hear something from our supposed leader? Come on Lowe's get your act to together!

Pathetic...I wonder if Marvin heard a manager say that all blacks have huge lips what he would do. This is off the charts unethical and at his level he needs to go. So if he doesn't I guess that means you can make a racist comment, say sorry and... — read more
