"I worked at Lowe's for a short period of time but was treated well. The managers/bosses where always understanding and helped to ensure what I needed to get done. The big downside to the job I had was I worked night shift and got reprimanded for not doing the work that daylight crews should have done."

HR Manager

"I currently work for Lowe's and have been an Human Resource Manager since 10/13/03. The store management staff has a large turn over. I've worked for 9 different store managers. Lowe's is a good company but need to focus on leadership training, and conflict resolution. The majority of managers that I worked for were lacking in these areas."
