Wilkesboro, 964/907
To the ones on River Road, you are all about to have a rude awakening. Once the DFC opens in Tn, a lot of jobs will be lost. From what I’ve seen with the stores, I predict people who have been with Lowes for over 20 years will be the first to get ran... — read more

If you need a short term job....
Lowes has a deal for you. They have a bottle in the Managers office. They get everyone in a store meeting and spin it. If it lands on you....They send you out the bull pen gate..... to be rode off into the sunset.
Do yo feel that big s---ing sound?
It's all the people running out the door with merchandise they never pay for. Lowes should just supply clean needles....Lot's of the stuff to shoot up in them....and lots of stolen merchandise to support their drug addicts habits. When a company... — read more

Firing if you do jobs on your off days?

Of one thing you can be assured....Eventually....They will call you into there office and terminate you with no union to say wait a minute....This is a bull tihS termination. They really don't......care about you....Their employee. If you think they... — read more
Lowes fires employees because they try to prevent theft.
A company that in all likelihood....Will be bankrupt within the next 5 years time. No employee appreciation. They run employees through faster than a fast food restaurant. Shoplifters are better protected than their employees.

Abusive relationship
Lowe's store associate is like being in abusive relationship. The tone & unfriendly attitude from store management is terrible. Crappy schedules, daily work load, stupid/petty management, understaffing, no training, talked to like you are an idiot... — read more
This is the norm?
Way back when, if a customer complained about an associate, the incident was brought up along with the customer name and the associate's side would be explained. Fair enough. Now the associate is not given the name, and with the amount of customers... — read more

I applied for an ASM support job and have an interview coming up. Is this job going to be cut in the near future?
Amazon -Amazin’
Lowes, ticker symbol LOW, should concede to Amazon. LOW is going to fall into that business model at the expense of the walk in customer. If you come in the store, you are lowering yourself as a priority, while at the same time becoming the focus for... — read more

Lowe's is using the Sears business model

False overages at Lowe's
Yeah, it's a fun little tactic called "false overages". Essentially, the inventory manager has a running number that shows how much money in inventory you are short or over, so the store manager and LPOSM are constantly updated on how much inventory... — read more

Spend time with family & friends or spend time at Lowe's? Lowe's is the "family" you hope you never see again.
Sudden changes
So, the "new" hr manager came in and immediately my corporate rotation became simply a guideline and I previously closed 5x a month and now 2-3x that. Because the store will not hire additional employees, I guess the coverage for the store for my... — read more
Cooking the Books
We just finished our inventory, and kinda odd the numbers don't add up. We are missing a lot of stuff, that the system shows we have, and I am talking big items. Maybe this is how Lowe's cheats on taxes!!!
EEOC complaint
