"One year as a contractor and over 2 years as FTE at Lowe's corporate. Career progression is slow. Manager focused atmosphere. Releases are constantly pushed back. Development work takes extraordinary amount of time to make it to production, if it ever does. Excellent work atmosphere. Great job security and benefits. Beautiful campus. Better to come here at a senior or architect skill level. Promised competitive market salary over a year ago."
"Excellent working environment."
"I've contracted for Lowes.com for 18 months. Lowe's has a good work environment, beautiful campus and wonderful people. The benefits are great for full time employees (FTE), but non-existent for contractors. Also be aware that the rules are not the same for contractors and FTE's. This can be a positive or negative based on what's important to you. If you're ok with straight hourly, 100% on-site work, it does pay well and may be for you."
