Pros
Working at lowes is a team effort there is a since of shared responsibility for labor from dept man on down. You will have opportunities for advancement if you work hard and master your current position. You will be treated with respect most of the time, and morale is still high even in the recession. compensation is good and there are health and 401k fund matching benefits . I is a far environment and you will receive feedback good and bad when there is an audit of any kind going on in your department. oh and they like to hire for senior managment from the inside.
Cons
not enough time not enough employees, too many store processes to keep up with on the day to day. I think a more stream lined store process and a massive computer upgrade would make a huge difference in the stores. I know zone managers manage by telling not by doing but in a recession I think some one has to pick up the slack when most of us are maxed out for time management as it is . The only solution is overtime wich were not allowed to use. thats my one and only rant with lowes once you learn to work within the system
