Finally there is some media attention on the arbitration agreements that some of us were forced to sign by Lowe's. I know nothing will come out of this, but it's still nice to see those on top called out for questionable practices... — read more
Good luck!
Just wanted to wish you all at the Lowe's good luck with your new CEO. All I can tell you is that us at JCPenney are really, really happy to be rid of him. Hopefully he will be better for you than he was for us, but I wouldn't put my money on it... — read more
Embaarrassed
I'm to embarrassed to work here any longer. This is absolutely ridiculous. I'm a very dependable employee. Overall,probably the most knowledgeable. motivated and dependable employee in the store. These managers are IDIOTS. Young kids that think they... — read more
change is coming
Spouse worked for JCP. Layoffs and store closings. Stores use to look nice, now they look crummy, just go to your local JCP store if you have one and tour the store. It is not the same look when it was doing better. Funny thing is people think they... — read more
How long before next restructuring?
I was just wondering, how long will it be before we see next restructuring at Lowe's now that we have a new CEO? From what I've seen, he is not shy of either layoffs or closings. I'm betting those are the exact qualities that netted him this job, and... — read more

Something has to be coming
Something has to be coming-stores of this size can't keep running like this. It's just miserable. My store is in the same shape. Irp's not getting done, same for cycle counts and down stocking. We barely get new signage up. Sometimes it's not all up... — read more

NIblock accepts award for Lowe's
More corporate fluff while niblock and his cronies break the back of the in-store associates all in the name of increasing the per share price at all costs. So much for the servant leadership model. Lowe's is a sad company... — read more
Love Lowes
New employee and just love the job. I am trying to learn new things. I rest some negative comments but I have a feeling I will still love my job a year from now.
New policy on days absent?
Is there a new policy on how many days an employee can miss? Thanks
LNS Specialist
Any news on Live Nursery Specialist? I occasionally hear these are going away but maybe a rumor.
My comment is missing!!
If this is anonymous and nothing bad was written why was my comment removed?! No names nor foul language was used. I read some post on here that are not nice but mine was deleted??? That is odd.

Store Morale?
How are things going at your store. Ours never improved after the Feb. 2017 massacre. BUT "ask for all sevens ALL THE TIME"! Yeah, we're soooooooo pumped!
This is our reality now
Yesterday I had to tell a customer that it would be about 15 minutes befor I could help him. I explained that I had 3 customers ahead of him. Two orders of paint to make and to cut 6 blinds. He said he was not going to wait, he wanted to buy a... — read more
Is it true? No more Sundays off?
I have a church function to go to and was recently told that Lowe's only has to guarantee one weekend off a month that you do not automatically get an extra Sunday off of month and that if you don't like it you can find a new job.
More positions to be cut?
Is it true that we are looking at more cuts in positions across the board? There's been talk at our store lately, and I'm starting to worry we might be looking at a repeat of last year. I might be reading too much into simple store gossip as well... — read more
Bye Felicia
Lowe's announced Monday that CEO Robert Niblock will retire from the home improvement retailer as soon as the company finds a successor. Its shares jumped more than 6 percent in premarket trading following the announcement. "After a 25-year career at... — read more
ASMs Could Care Less
Well, it seems like the asm's could care less or basically don't give a crap. The freight-morons put stuff everywhere but never where it is supposed-to be and no one seems to follow-up and keep track of them. So, we have to clean up after them and... — read more
No more nascar
Lowe's, the home improvement chain that has sponsored Jimmie Johnson since his NASCAR Cup Series debut in 2001, announced Wednesday that it won't return to the seven-time champion's car after this season. The company is leaving the sport and will not... — read more
Lowe's handled this so wrong
Lowe's handled this so wrong. They kept telling people to find other positions and unless it was a position like 2 steps down or more they wouldn't consider you cause they want to reduce your salary. It's a joke. I am still a CSA 5 and have another... — read more
Paid for leads
Is this happening at your store? It was mentioned in the morning meeting that Lowes is paying associates $10.00 for each lead for the PSI/PSE sales people. Not sure it is when the lead is entered or when the sale is made. They made a big deal out of... — read more
Seasonal Hiring, Part Time Cuts, and Bonuses
Seasonal Hiring came to a screeching halt at our store. Even though they are still saying they are hiring, they aren't. Big banner outside hanging on the building is just for show. Totally lying to the public to make things look better then they are... — read more

Lowe's February 2018 layoffs
Credit went today. They offered us a new position. Thanks, Lowe’s. 8 years of dedication and you just screwed me as well as the other who take on my workload with no pay increase. Any more info on yesterday's layoffs? Has anything else been hit? And... — read more
The Lowe's Pit
These corporate retail giants like Lowe's, are the pit. They could care less for you, or the general public. They are number crunchers only. If you are employed by one of these brutal monsters, you will have to deal with it. It will never change, and... — read more
Service Manager Training
The Service Manager Training "opportunity" is a joke. It is the same discriminatory selection as seems to be the norm with Lowes and what was discussed when they "transitioned" some department managers to service managers. Get rid of the older even... — read more

Sterling
As a lowes customer and not an employee I can say Sterling is a dirty word to me. God help me if I ask for a price adjustment or anything complex. That's an hour wait. I once had to ask a Lowes employee to call IT to fix an issue. She told me i had... — read more
Lay off request
Is it possible as a part timer to ask to be laid off from Lowes for a period of 3 months, due to personal reasons. Who has the final say so???

LP's are turning on eachother
The LPs are useless at lowes. They are threatened with their job if they stop a bad guy. Apparently, the moral is so bad in the Highland, CA store that the LP threw another LP under the bus! I was told that the female LP in Highland had a... — read more
