Topics regarding layoffs at Lowe's Cos.

Coprorate MST

The corporate degenerates in charge of this program have no idea where their focus needs to be. At some point supporting the teams in the stores needs to be a priority. We all know it never will be.

This is artificially inflated success

How long do you think this can last? The only thing that is driving these numbers are layoffs. That's it. Does Marvin plan to continue laying off until there is nobody left at the stores just to pump up the numbers? We are losing customers as it is... — read more 

Check on benefits

Are any of you missing vaca or holiday? Can't be checked the old way when you could see what's left at end of fiscal year. More than a few of missing time left the way it looks now.

Sell it. Sell it all.

Thanks Marv for bringing up the stock price up to where it was a few months ago. To celebrate, tomorrow I am selling all my Lowes shares and purchasing Home Depot stock. Why have a cheap imitator when you can own the real thing?

Danger Ahead, Didn't this guy come from J.C. Penny?

Yeah I remember that Marvin guy. Cut all the fat off the workers' backs, reworked the inventory with cheap knock off product to make it look full. Thought giving space for haircuts and coffee would turn things around and make Penny's a... — read more 

Health Insurance Continuation?

With all the BS going on, I am wondering if any posters have experience/insight into the health insurance situation. I'm actively looking for something new, but the insurance question always comes up. Our ASA (good person) is telling me that... — read more

The “Agenda”

Plain and simple: Lowe’s is rejecting tenured associates for other job postings either in their own store, or for positions at other stores. Now that the store level HR’s are gone, the mission is clear: deny the applicants with seniority a chance to... — read more

The REAL problem with Lowe’s

I’ve been a little disappointed lately with the quality of posts on this site. It seems to be awash in conspiracy theories, wild accusations and just generic griping. I realize that many of you may have circumstances that differ from one store to... — read more 

Supervisor hourly rate

I'm a supervisor making $24.86 and hour. I was wondering what other supervisors are making?

Why is Ellison REALLY at Lowe's?

Marvin Ellison is on the way to transform a good company, Lowe's, into the sewer. He says into a "GREAT" company but his apparent skill as a motivational speaker...which is all he seems to be good at...is overshadowed by what may be his real... — read more

The goal is cheap work, not quality work?

To tell you the truth, I’m a little surprised by the amount of people who are shocked by the way the company is treating its workers. They don’t care about the quality of work, they don't care about having employees that are going to give their 110%... — read more

How’s it been

It’s been three weeks since the store, restrooms etc have been cleaned. I’m sure none of the equipment has been serviced. All the other FSA duties have either been dumped on others or not happening. How many unsatisfied customers have complained due... — read more 

"Be who we say we are"-Lol just kidding

This company gives guiding principals to its employees, but Marvin feels free to abandon them to steal a few scheckels for his hedge fund masters. Sad.

This is what stupid people think.

He is responsible for every single decision made by a $70 billion company and is accountable to the board of directors. What do you think that’s worth? From another section here.

Home Depot Recruitment

Home Depot was on my store recruiting the sales specialist, offering to match what they were making before Marvin took away their allowance. Several have already set up interviews, looks like more out the door at my store!

Lowes CEO has got go

Who could fix Lowe's?

Any ideas on who could be brought in to fix everything Marvin and his predecessors messed up? Is there even fixing this mess?

Time to go Marvin

So 13 1/2 months on the job is enough to see that this man is not qualified to lead a trash fire. Don’t let the door hit you where god split you.

Is Home Depot better employer than Lowe's?

I have a chance at a position there and I'm about ready to jump on it, but I'm somewhat worried if I'm going to end up in a similar mess as here - especially considering who used to be their CEO. Can anybody here tell me if Home Depot treats its... — read more 

With new part-timers came a decline in sales

3 or4 months ago our store saw an increase of hirings of new part timers that were followed by cuts by which mostly long time employees had been hit. Since then, apart from the obvious decline of quality of service, came a big decline in sales. Did... — read more
