Pros

The only Pro I would give this job was my 20% discount at verizon

Cons

This was a horrible place to work the management is so petty and degrading to all of its employees. Also one of the biggest examples of favortism I have seen in promoting. If I were to get back into a place like this I would look for a Home Depot lowes blows.

Pros

Lowe's can be a great place to work if you don't mind working very hard, sometimes without any recognition; but really this is the case with nearly any retailer. Lowes has an interesting history and if CEO and Corporate can remember that history and realize that the mom and pop hardware store became a giant because of strategic growth based on a need and a can do attitude in fulfilling that need, it can survive this downturn. Never cave to the corporate welfare system and when you must slash jobs, find out who is performing and treat them well... drop the rest like hot potatoes.

Cons

Like so many others, but especially true for Lowes, loyalty has become a one way street. Corporate and upper management must offer the same loyalty they ask for, or this company will come down like a house of cards.
