Thread regarding Lowe's Cos. layoffs

anyone elses 9/27 paycheck incorrect??

paycheck for 9/27 gross amount is higher than the wages actually earned in that 2 week period. there is then a line by line addition and subtraction going all the way back to june only for overtime pay for each pay period where it shows how much was paid and how much should have been. in every case the amount is suppose to be higher and my paycheck is nearly a 100 dollars more after the corrections.

i went back to those individual paychecks and the math was done correctly on them as far as gross amounts for regular and overtime pay....i just simply wasnt paid out the right amount after deductions and taxes. wondering if lowes got independently audited and was found to be shaving overtime money out of peoples paychecks in the net amount. i put nothing past this shady company. not many employees are ever going to do the math to figure out how a company comes to their net income.

I wouldn't trust Marvin to screw in a lightbulb correctly. Is it any wonder some workers paychecks are $1200.00 short? Its funny how no ones are over, all errors are in Lowes favor. Lol.

Got rehired after being one of the ones laid off 7/31/19. They took transition pay back this week ; net pay for the last two weeks was under $200.00. When I called they told me yes we are deducting that money because you got rehired ? What about the 3 weeks I wasn't working.

theres actually two separate gross numbers...one that includes all these accounting additions for the past 3 months and another for only money earned the past 2 weeks. theres 2 lines per pay period for the past 3 months. in every case the overtime amount they claim to of paid was lower than the new amount the say they now owe me. came out to about 87 more dollars when all these line items were completed and they added that to the current pay periods earned income.

ironically when i look at past paychecks the numbers are all correct. so i can only figure one of two things 1. they fiddled with the tax deductions to "net" me less money and perhaps tried to pocket the difference...got audited and had to return it before they got sued and fined or 2. like you said....govt. cracking down on faulty accounting demanding better accuracy or what they have been doing was just plain wrong – using old tax % from prior year and now theyre correcting it.

this deserves transparency.....later on i looked on facebook and hundreds of associates are saying the same thing about their paycheck.....some even seeing lowes taking back money from them for prior weeks with no explanation given!

So what you're saying if I got this right is that the gross is correct but the amount of taxes taken out was too high? If that's the case it may have something to do with federal/state possibly issuing fines for either taking out too much or too little. I recall There was some news a while back that the Trump administration wanted the taxes to be more accurate so people wouldn't see big amounts owed or overpaid to the treasury, I haven't seen that in my check though so it may be your state.

I figure Marvin needed some money for stock by backs and took it from employee paychecks.
