Pros

The best reason I can think of is the amount of money that you can make as a good salesperson. In some departments associates regularly double there paychecks through commission.

Cons

Micromanaging. For One store there are Department managers, Zone managers, Administrative managers, Sales managers, Operations manager and the store manager telling you projects to work on. Most of the time these are going in different directions to meet that managers priorities. On top of those there are regional Operation manager, Division manager, and District managers also relaying projects to you.

Pros

There are none. I left Lowe's because they just threw me out in my department , and I could not give my customers the full service that they deserved. After 3 mo. I gave up. I still could not get any one to show me how to order on their computer. I proceeded to sell another five jobs. I had to give my sales to the other salesman in my dept. so they could be ordered. They kept telling me I had to finish my testing, but would then make me go out in the dept. to wait on cust.

Cons

1st wk. had over 30 tests on computer. if failed had to go back & repeat. I had some of my old customers asking for me. I would leave the testing and go out and wait on my customer. My second week there I closed a $18 thousand dollar job with a cust.and gave it to the other salesman to order. No one had taught me the process of ordering on there computer system. I kept asking Mgt. to have one of the other salesman teach me, but they kept telling me they didn't have time. They were to busy.
