Saw an email about changes at Corporate. Looks like Marissa is being given the chance at "Other Opportunities." Looks like what she was doing is easily being folded into the duties of another Corporate entity, who has been with Lowe's for quite a... — read more

What a lousy, underhanded, cheap thing to do. Our management said specialists are excluded from the Inflation Bonus! Because we get a monthly bonus. Since the the economy has tanked we Don’t get ANY bonus Marvin. God Bless

Disengaged managers create disengaged staff
Of course I'm losing motivation when I am expected to do work for 10 people while managers almost never have any presence on the floor. What do they even do in their offices? Nothing? I don't think the manager's job gets any "easier" than here at... — read more
Why we need to Unionize
We need a cost of living increase, real raises, better scheduling and more associates on the floor. For too long this company(especially under marvins "leadership") has pulled all of the resources out of the stores to either make the numbers look... — read more

Baltimore Mgmt is a joke
If you go in to any Lowe's around Baltimore, they are just a disaster. When you listen to the employees, if you can find one, all they do is b!tch and moan about how miserable they are. I do business all around Baltimore, but each store has the same... — read more

UNBEARABLE ENVIRONMENT
Staying at this job is like one of those Big Brother immunity challenges where they see who can stand the uncomfortable situation the longest. But there's no winner. Just more pain.
Time off requests....
Been with Lowe's for about 3 years. New SM came in a year ago and for some reason all TOR never get looked at. Some sitting for months.... They won't even talk to you about it or reply to an email concerning TOR. What the he-l do they think? It's... — read more
