Pros

High starting wage, regular large raises for work very comparable to cashiering anywhere else. Training available for moving up, my store was very internally mobile. Walkie-Talkie system fosters employee interaction. Customer Service employees able to make decisions and have management support.

Cons

Garden center... out in the weather and not being rotated. Loss prevention is only on-site 9-5, leaving cashiers to handle it. No understanding below Assistant Manager of business in general or Lowe's in specific. Head Cashier turnover near 100% over 1 year.

Pros

Excellent opportunities with a company that recognizes your strengths. My best advise, and one I wish I had listened to, is to plan your career path and be prepared to hold out for the right opportunites. They are there, for the right people, just do not try to rush it.

Cons

Retail hours. not much else to say.

Pros

I got great exercise walking to the parking lot to retrieve carts. I also sweated off a lot of weight standing out in the heat all day.

Cons

Co-workers don't care Required to "look busy" so supervisors don't "get into trouble" Customers are usually in a bad mood
