Best job I've had so far in my career. - Senior Software Engineer Lowe's Home Improvement Employee Review

Really laid back. Not much stress. Great discounts

There are times that stress happens. Management is different at each store. To make or break your job you need support from ASM's. And hope the store has enough regular cashiers.

The job offers great benefits, and you have the opportunity to learn a lot about different home improvement skills as well as get a better understanding of general contracting as a whole, if you apply yourself. Most fellow associates are kind and helpful and fantastic to work with, really fostering the idea that corporate likes to push of being a 'family'.

You will be worked hard with a skeleton crew and given every excuse under the sun by management as to why even the simplest improvements can't be done, Customers are generally nice, but there are a fair amount of them that will abuse or insult you for not knowing everything about everything in the store. Favoritism definitely thrives there, with people possessing better skills being passed over for opportunities by people who are more chummy with the right people.
