Thread regarding Lowe's Cos. layoffs

New changes, more lazy managers, and more "permanent" seasonal workers.

Just as I thought, this "restructuring" has done nothing but save the corporate pigs money, make a whole new batch of overpaid managers, all wearing new clothes and hairdos but working less than ever.

Now I am being micro-managed, reminded 10x a day of what I already know by a managers trying to justify their new positions. Instead of telling me what to do while I'm already working at something, why don't their sorry, lazy asses do the little tasks they ask others to do. Stupid sense of entitlement.

Here's what I know:

-I'm working harder.

-Mangers are still doing what they did before - not working.

-More PT workers, fewer FT positions.

-More and more seasonal workers are kept seasonal past the time when they are supposed to be permanent workers, or let go. Lowe's just keeps them on past their contract dates, which means they have no right to a raise and no benefits.

Lowe's is such a sh--ty company...does anyone believe all the propaganda the spew?

To Lowe's: you are just a paycheck to me, nothing more. I would leave (and will) as soon as I have a decent job opportunity. In the meantime, I do my best to talk customers OUT of buying products at Lowe's, and suggesting how they can save money & get better quality somewhere else.

Screw Lowe's and the entire corporate system.

Yes, it's bad. I too do as little as possible these days...there is no incentive to go the extra mile because it's such a terrible company and it's not appreciated. I don't need a pat on the back or "Good job" all the time because I've always worked hard, even as a kid. What I need is more people to handle customers...you know, the reason Lowe's exists. This company will run you ragged and try and make you feel as if you're really contributing to something larger...please. They only care about their corporate shareholders.

100%.. I tell my long time customers who come in to see me that Lowe's doesn't care and they want all the knowledge gone. They already told me in the past year seen how things have crapped out when I told them I will be gone they said they will go to Depot. They only came here because of the long term associates. Dealing with part time kids who don't know how to screw in a light bulb isn't going to keep them coming back.. I too am only collecting a paycheck. I do as LITTLE as I can everyday. No longer look to get things done. It's not appreciated so why bother??
