Pros

Can explore and gain knowledge on home improvement retail industry. You get associated with a Brand which is about $56bn.

Too many frequent changes in organisation at leadership level (onshore as well as offshore). Difficult to understand leadership team's expectations.

Pros

Plz don't spoil your life by working 24*7 service based culture company.

Cons

Don't feel you are in a Product based company. Because all people are from Service Based company and same mentality continues here. So if you are planning to join this company ask for salary of 50 LPA a minimum amount at 5yrs of experience. Because a Developer will do Dev, Test ( No QA Team accross the org), Manual test, Automation test, Devops , Support over night and soon your life will be in hell by ignoring my comments why did I joined Lowes. Here Manager will do Testing job

Pros

Fantastic team members and direct management in most cases Great brand name (better responses from candidates, easier to sell initial conversation) Recruiting tools available Good bonus in 2020 due to covid making sales go way up Direct management seems to really care about their employees

Cons

Inept management in roles that they should not be (some manager but primarily director/sr director+) Terrible benefits (2 holidays with 4 floating you have to accrue to use, 6 sick days and 10 pto days for first 5 years) Significantly below market base pay Interdepartmental conflict/trying to make sure their group is kept over others or other acquired under their management with current management fired Consistently changing metrics Metrics not focused on core job functions, there specifically to “prove worth” to upper management (which is important but holding different TA groups to hire metrics doesn’t speak to core functions of employment branding, sourcing, CrM team, etc) No upward mobility Lowe’s salaried hiring requiring relocation and paying well below market value means many rejected offers, especially in tech Attempting to be more inclusive/add more diversity at all levels (positive) but ends up making the TA very uncomfortable in methods and how management tracks/talks about it Constant fear despite doing well on metrics that job will be cut Work life balance was great until around Q1 2021; now many TA members are working every night and weekends No push back from leadership on hiring managers due to fear, lots of saying yes/letting them get away with being unreasonable without repercussions, putting individual contributors in between a rock and a hard place (then yelling at them when they don’t meet unattainable goals)
