"I think Lowes is a great corporation to work for and to be a customer for. The personalism is impeccable and the manager is full of knowledgeable team players that keep lowes afloat. I'd rate them a 10 in every area a company could be scored on. Professional, knowledgeable, friendly and an evoirment for all ages from the pro to the every day home do it yourself mom."

"I worked for Lowes for a little less than a year. The employees were very dedicated to the company and most seamed to actually like the job, which I find a rare thing in retail. It did seem like once you had a position it was very difficult to make moves, whether lateral or up. At least that was my observation in the time I was there."

"In general a good company to work for, but pay is too low for expectations. I have 12 years experience in retail. 9 years for lowes with 8 in management. There are states with higher minimum wage than my salary!"
