Pros

A lot of possibilities for career growth. Equal opportunity to anyone who shows they are willing to work hard and take instructions well. I have always felt for the most part that the right people were getting promotions and the right people were not getting promotions. Management seems to quickly pick up on the accociates who are working hard and making Lowe's a better working environment.

Cons

Retail hours are awful. They offer a rotation schedule to the hourly employees, just one weekend a month and one of the weeks you get off Sunday and Friday. Pretty sorry. Also, at my current store we have to do an immature cheerleader like Lowe's cheer. It's rather embarrassing and makes me feel like i'm working somewhere i wish i wasn't.

Pros

Some amazing customers and coworkers. Tasks and systems were easy to learn. Sometimes you get lucky and have amazing ASMs and SMs. It's easy to get a good survey when you treat customers like friends, be honest about what you do and don't know, and work to learn what you don't. That goes a long way with customers. I personally truly loved my job and loved spending as much time as I could at work.

Cons

Once you are on someones S*** List they will make it possible to get rid of you. Management only follows policy when it benefits them. Some people get promoted when they have no business working in retail as a leader. The A/C in the store I worked in was always broken during the summer, which made it miserable to work. Some customers are entitled due to they way management will kiss their butts to keep from losing a sale or getting a bad review. Management will make a paper trail to write you up if you mess up or are struggling instead of helping you better yourself. Management does not care about employees' work-life balance. Management does not care if their employees are struggling with personal issues like car troubles, health issues, financial issues, etc. Management will get rid of great employees but keep people who don't pull their weight. Once I hit burnout, instead of helping me, I was punished by my managers. In turn making me hate a job I truly loved.
