Pros
At the store level, Lowes generally offers employees without traditional education opportunities for advancement that they would not get elsewhere. Training for advancement is offered to all. As a retail environment, Lowe's encourages their employees to create positive experiences with customers and emphasizes interaction that gives the customer the information and products they need. It can be downright fun to help someone complete a project successfully.
Cons
The store hours are increasing and the store coverage is decreasing. Micro-management seems to be the order of the day with negative impact on morale and retension.
