Pros

401k match you up to 6% then a percentage after. The management team at my store is great .... tons of stores = more advancement opportunities .. we get small bonuses if we make our sales and service quotas .. benefits and stock purchase

Cons

pay raise per year is very low!!.. not sure if I will make it a career I am interested in HR but the HR turn over rate is very high at every store I have been to kind of scares me from taking that path ... also operating system is so old! I understand it would be extremely difficult and expensive to change but at some point I believe it needs to be done

Pros

Lowes has a fast track program that if you show enough promise you can be promoted fairly rapidly, promotions are usually accompanied by a small 10% pay increase and a massive work load increase.

Cons

Company in the last decade has taken a severe down turn. Has soon as Robert Niblock took over this company they became penny squeezing corporate conglomerate. Long shifts for very poor pay. Recently all commision and spiff pay outs were discontinued so you can't make a decent living anywhere in this store. Senior management in most stores is hired externally so they have little or no clue what they are doing.
