Pros
Working with an excellent group of co workers and "sometimes" management
Cons
It is very difficult to get benefits. You MUST be working full time to get them. Even then, you have to bug HR to make sure that you get them. As mentioned in other reviews, the "Good ol boy" network is still in place. While minorities might not have as much difficulty moving up, women are RARELY promoted. If they are promoted it is for the head of the front end or Home decor and not anywhere else. Depending on the store, some managers will try to cut corners to increase sales. When I worked at lowes in Lawn and Garden, safety rules were routinely ignored! If you are a male cashier expect to be singled out to do carts when the cart pushers call in or don't show up to shifts.
