Finally!

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

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.

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.

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

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

The Lowe's Pit
