After nearly 14 years of working and busting my behind for the store I worked at, I was laid off along with the FSA. I kind of figured it was coming when they brought in a third party assembler. Plus with all the "improvements" they are doing, I... — read more 

I am an fsa or was and I worked 12 hours today trying to complete projects before I left and I was deleted from the system already when I left. This is going to be horrible for the store I worked. I wanna see Marvin work a 16 hr day when the... — read more 

All this layoff does is help Marvin's expense page to show he pays less for employees for q3. It raises the store expenses by doing all 3rd party but that must be a different page that investors dont see. What is going to do the next quarter and on... — read more 

My husband really liked his job and the people he worked with. I don't think he ever had a bad day the whole 6 years he was with Lowe's, until today. They have no idea what they have done. I feel bad for all the people who have had their lives turned... — read more 

I was warned in advance about the practices within Lowes. I wanted to see for myself, as a full retiree with plenty of money, I took a FSA job to actually see the injustice that people had expressed to me. After one year and incredible anguish I... — read more 

Thoughts? Info? Are they going to survive this purge or is the turtle man saving the biggest for last?

Cuts coming tomorrow in receiving department

Has management explained why the WARN Act does not apply to the FSAs and Assemblers let go today? Federal law requires 60 days notice with plant closures or layoffs of more than 50 employees. Why does the WARN Act not apply to the layoffs today?

I helped build the store March 2008. Was out sweeping the back Receiving area and ASM escorted me into the Store Manager's Office. 9 years as back-up flat-bed driver and floater delivery driver. Dismissed.

I have been an FSA for six years at my store and just a half hour ago I got called into the HR office and was told that my job was eliminated as of today. Most FSA’s suspected this was coming but I didn’t think it would happen this quickly. One day... — read more 

Yes that's right, Most nights are weekends, mine is the only face the customer will see. What the....

If there is any rhyme or reason to what this management is doing, I can't see it. Unless the goal is to tank the company... In that case, job well done!

This week is gonna be historic. Be ready.

Anyone else’s store threatening “documentation” if full timers go over their scheduled 39 hours. That used to be our buffer to keep from going over 40.

How about them apples!! 3 weeks of overnights in September. Wanting 3 major resets done in that time frame. What is corporate thinking???

My SM sells everything from mowers, appliances, and just about whatever else to this guy and his wife for literally pennies on the dollar. Then the family apparently flips the items and even has a website that displays them. They are making... — read more

All money is Lowe’s money. That’s what they believe. Everything is an expense too high. In times like this when good employees are hard to find, Lowe’s has decided they all need to go to save money. They, of course, could keep 8000 or so full time... — read more

As bad as this stamets sounds, I’m afraid it’s the truth. The leaders don’t seem to be worried too much about the way things stand at the company, even more, they seem to be generating this on purpose. When you’re lead by people who are not afraid to... — read more 

It’s very easy for someone to say “Why not quit?” When they aren’t in your circumstances. First, some people who have been employed at Lowe’s for a long time, it was once a decent place to work. Then the changes came. But if you’ve worked for... — read more

If you work at a Lowe’s, then there are other places to work. McDonalds, Family Dollar, Home Depot. You don’t live in a place with no other options. People act like it’s Guantanamo Bay. If you truly hate your job so much, why don’t you quit? I did. I... — read more
