We are fed up, we've had enough, and we are tired of dealing with lazies that make the same or more than we do
I am one of many, if not all, long-time associates at my store who are looking to get out. We are fed up, we've had enough, and we are tired of dealing with lazies that make the same or more than we do. I've been with Lowe's seven years now and I... — read more
Lowe’s doesn’t want to keep its workers for a long period of time
Sad, no doubt, but it’s the new company policy, which means that the longer we stay at the company the more in danger we are of getting laid off. This is not a company in which anybody, except maybe the c-suite management, can pursue a career in. The... — read more
Termination Letter
I just received a letter from LOWES asking why I made 0$ on the most recent paycheck, and asking if I was on leave. You’ve got to be kidding me. I better not still be employed. I’m my Severance it clearly states that my term date was 2/1. These... — read more
This is the main reason we are failing
I left a year ago after putting in my 20yrs. and have not regretted it one bit. I miss the people I worked with but not the changes the company was making. It didn't make sense to let so much knowledge walk out the door but that was the direction the... — read more
LP who got supervisor spots
Curious as to what type of raise if any you got when accepting a department supervisor spot. This applies to former LP only. Hearing a lot of mixed signals around the market.
I've worked for Lowes for 20 years
I've worked for Lowe's for 20 years now and my time is done here. When I started it was rare to have an opening at my store and everyone at my store had 5 years plus experience. The store was filled with excitement, team work, hard work and we had... — read more
Marvin’s Pukecast
Don’t you just love looking at his mug every time you log into Lowesnet??? And then the Pukecast. Another week of BS spewing from his mouth. Not all of us are ignorant and believe your lies Marv!
Lowe's forcing employees to go to Home Depot on company time.
Any other employees out there forced to go to Home Depot to get contractor s information on Lowe's company time? How is this legal? Lowe's ASM said I "must go to home Depot, get contractor info, call them, and steal their business." Meanwhile, I am... — read more
Worst District Manager Nominees

Gum ball rally.

Wonder what's really going to be the point of this Sunday morning meeting. Any facts out there? Or just the normal complaints and waste of time reading it....
Lowe’s as a corporation does not care about you
Interesting speech, but let’s not forget, at the end of the day/heat of the moment, humans by nature only look out for themselves. We are a very selfish species that ultimately doesn’t care about others. We pretend to play nice/act as part of a team... — read more

How possible are layoffs after the spring season ends?
I imagine they are gonna hold off a little on the layoffs until the season ends, but what can we expect after that? Layoffs are always present at Lowe's, but what I’m asking is if there is a possibility of a new, organized wave of mass layoffs... — read more
Management never appreciates the employees
They never appreciate the employees. They only talk to you if you supposedly did something wrong. Poor management from top down and they blame the little people who are not responsible for the decisions. All we do is try to care for the customer and... — read more

Xpo meeting with Lowe's yesterday
Anyone hear about a meeting with Lowe's managers and xpo yesterday?I guess next round of layoffs will be delivery drivers.
The all store meeting is NOT mandatory.
I repeat, the all store meeting is NOT mandatory. If your store manager tells you otherwise, he is lying. Store managers have to report turnout numbers to the district team. If turnout is low, the DM will question them as to why. If you miss the... — read more

If I got severance, am I eligible to apply for unemployment?
I’m sure the rules are different depending on one’s location, but there has to be some general principle about this. I figure that getting severance is an internal relation between the company and me and that it doesn't affect my right to claim... — read more
When is severance paid?
When is severance usually paid out? Is it always within a month of being laid off?
Lost respect
I no longer respect any decisions made by Lowes. Throughout my career I’ve been mentored by those who taught me that you can question decisions made by others but you shouldn’t question their motivations. The idea being that they make decisions, good... — read more
Taxes for Severance

Pushing a new story to cover up the reality
They're just going to push some new story that misrepresents a bunch of seasonal positions as thousands of new jobs again. It'd take a miracle to get the media to really give a sh-- about this. Nicely put @XGfBPiz-kxd . A truthful post. I want to add... — read more

“Laid off” LP here. Got denied unemployment because I “received” a severance. Hmm I’ve been without a job since 2/1 but haven’t seen a cent of money. Fighting this b---s---. F--- Lowe’s, God bless.
Lowe's is Shady
