      HR is toxic

      Pros

      Great ceo, and all bp's that report to the head of hr are great. Beautiful campus, good food, but that's about it.

      Cons

      Beware. The culture is pretty toxic and will long outlast the new ceo. They often have people interview for their own job that they've been in for years. It's a very typical toxic retail environment. NO HOLIDAYS except for Thanks giving day (not the day after), and for Christmas. All other holidays are floaters (only 4 floats). Not friendly to work from home/remote work, especially in HR. They have a long way to go to evolve - I imagine they will be bought by some other retailer at some point.

      Pay and Benefits Ok. Company has no vision.

      Pros

      The associates are hard working and caring. Managers in the store are very engaged and knowledgeable. A day in the store is never dull, I’m always busy. If you like retail management AND sales, this is for you. Much more selling involved than traditional retail environment which focuses much more heavily on merchandising.

      Cons

      Market management is disengaged and focuses on the wrong things. Lowe’s doesn’t train associates or managers well. The training programs are broken or non existent. The schedule is awful. 11+ hours days and 3 weekend days per month off makes it difficult to find time for friends and family. The technology in the store will make your job more, not less difficult.

      Pros

      The pay is good for a recent college grad. The position can offer someone good experience where you will learn a lot about the HR field.

      Cons

      the long term opportunities are highly limited. The pay is well below industry averages for mid career professionals. The hours are unusually long 70 - 80 hours a week typically. The bonuses cannot be counted on, and the senior management is unprofessional and immature. Corporate Head Quarters might be a good place for anyone who wants a real career.
