Just being honest. This is never going to work.
Just got off the phone with UFCW union
They can't wait to work with us. They are shocked most people got just a 2% raise an some of the other nonsense like cutting hours for part timers an hour before they come to work. Google UCFW and get involved. It's the only way to get what we... — read more

Simply Madness in HTOWN / Deep South
Now it's 3 store managers fired. All by the shadiest MKTHRBP/ Mkt MGR. Why can't H.O. see through the turmoil that is bringing down the company and effecting the lives of hard working people. The company should be holding their own town hall... — read more

Lowe's late policy for employees
What's the policy?
Lowe's corporate needs to do an about face on how they treat employees
Lowe's corporate needs to do an about face on how they treat employees. Marvin needs to quit glorifying anything he is doing and take stock in the situation he has created. Employee morale is down nation wide. How LTR isn't totally in the red is... — read more
Does SMART not apply to them?
How many times do you see management walk by customers and not greet them? Let alone ask to assist them? Does your mgmt stare at their security blankets(phones) to avoid all interactions? How are these people chosen to lead a store?
No, it's not the same everywhere in retail
Many of us hesitate to leave, precisely because everyone thinks that working in retail elsewhere is more or less the same as it is here. Isn't that so? I know a few people who have left, are still in retail, and are earning and feeling much more... — read more
People need to learn once and for all that Lowe's doesn't care about its employees
So many posts here comment on how they were not treated well by Lowe's, how they were not respected, or valued... Have you been here for 5 minutes?? Lowe's has always been like that. This company was never your family and it never saw you as anything... — read more

Con Artist
The store managers are all gutless con artists now. They can’t make any decisions without the douche District Mgr approving it first. That Pay Advisor cr-p screws the experienced employees out of money if they decide to step away from a manager or... — read more
MisLeading Union Cards
How many signatures need to be signed to get involvement from a union. After our FB get together somebody printed a card from the internet and sent it to everyone. We all Esigned it from 6 different stores. Now what happens ?
There is a thread on lowes reddit
All specialists will now be everywhere no specific area I do not think that will happen
Remember when I posted my store has 3 good managers LEFT.
MAKE THAT 2 Now, The new manager boy wants to bring his Puppet in, lucky us.
Stock Price still below $200......
What will the corporate folks take from the employees now? We can't get shrink wrap. We run out of toilet paper and have to pull it from the shelves. Same with paper towel and hand soaps. Yet they will put money toward the fun fund(what a joke)... — read more

North Tampa Store more leave then get hired, Net Zero?

You shouldn't wait to be forced out
I got a new offer and now I regret that I didn't start looking for something else earlier. I always remember the experience of my friend who waited here until the last minute, thinking it was a good thing. He later tried unsuccessfully to get a new... — read more
Good Mgrs Tired of the B. S.
Studies have shown that hard working proactive associates / employees are running away from companies with turmoil in the ranks of higher leadership. Those that speak up and are tired of going with flow are either being targeted for termination or... — read more
It’s not worth it.
A colleague of mine left the company at the end of the year. He found a similar paying job in retail but with much better work conditions and a lot less pressure. At the time when he left I was thinking about leaving too, but in the end I decided to... — read more
A wise man once told me
Don't push yourself hard. Slow down and do what is expected of you, no more no less. Take your 15 minute breaks and lunch. Go home, rinse and repeat.

Due file is falsification of sales
Now it all makes sense. Due file numbers are being tracked month to month and are input into a wire task. These numbers are then calculated as sales that are padding numbers to the share holders. What the company doesn’t tell you is these are... — read more
Union Activity In Deep South
Everyone down here is tired of getting profiled. Tired of being sent home / schedules changed. Even when you go to MKHRBP they say to follow posted schedule. My FE DS was fired for calling out so much that she cried to A R and they brought her... — read more
How much do you think Lowe's pays for positive media coverage?
I was just reading an article on Retail Dive on how Lowe's did great during the pandemic because of this and that and it made me feel sick to my stomach. Lowe's did well because it continued to treat its employees like cr-p and because it didn't care... — read more
Can you say shareholders freaking out?
Stock price going down like china town. Send everybody home. Just one cashier. One ASM.
Union representation a must!
It's time that everyone realizes a union is necessary at Lowe's so employees are treated properly. I've already been in contact with one and soon there will be a sign up drive, starting in New England. Lowe's will try and force employees to watch... — read more
Layoffs In May First Quarter Ugly
Saw the email the SM left on her screen from the RVP. Full Time Hourly employees in stores being cut in May prior to Q1 report to Wall Street. No more pandemic to drive sales and make Marv look good.
I totally lost my motivation
I was one of those who always did her job and at least half of someone else’s. I've always despised those who are lazy because they do no harm to the company, but to their colleagues who end up doing their work instead. And then one day it... — read more
More Blue Polos Then Red Vest
Does anyone know why their are more MST then Red Vest ? If you take half of them you would have more people in departments
Part time hours cut.
I have been at Lowes 4 years, take off rarely and always on time. Very different than a lot of other part timers. My hours we recently cut from 30 per week to 18 and 20. This week I worked 3 days! Can't make it at this number of hours. Gotta start... — read more
Human resource

Doing less with less
Why stress unnecessarily? They want us to do more with less. If they think it's possible, then let them find someone to do it. In the meantime, I keep working less with less. Interestingly, ever since I started doing just the bare minimum, I feel... — read more
Bail! Bail! Slash more hours!
