Pros

Lowe's is a big company and offers the typical benefits that come from working for a big company in benefits, work environment, standards of conduct, etc. Typically good opportunities for promotion. Salaries are average. Flexible work is available if your VP supports it.

Cons

Over the last 24 months Lowe's has, and continues, to go through management restructuring and identifying people and positions that are no longer needed. This is all intended to reduce expenses and be competitive with Home Depot. Read comments from analysts and you'll understand. This has seriously hindered upward mobility for now.

Pros

Lowe's provides an excellent atmosphere that is fun, safe, and comfortable to work in. I was worried about not knowing where things were when a customer asked, but you can always look to a fellow employee to give you a hand....with anything! If you've never used powered equipment, that will change.

Cons

If you aren't full time, hours will get cut around Summer time. Having a heavy work-load and having to cover 1 or 2 other departments. When you put on the vest, the customer will assume that you know EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING in the store while others will expect you to be in 2 places at once. It may seem tedious at times, but no matter how busy you are, you have to make it a habit to stop and ask EVERY customer (with a smile) if they could use your help for anything.
