#GAS POWERED POST DRIVER LOWES DRIVERS#
They change your schedule without properly consulting you to make sure it doesn't interfere with things already going on outside work life.Īs far as delivery, they allow non-delivery personnel to dictate the delivery drivers job without proper experience in routing or how long it would take to get the order together (someone else's job that you had to do as a driver) and finally get it on the truck and heading to the customer. They act like they pay well, even as far as saying "good luck finding something that pays more for CDL drivers" when all they do is try to find ways to cut hours. Spent 80% of my time there doing instore tasks that were somebody else's job because management thought it'd be ok. However, most positions, including management, is on a rota. Then they basically throw you into the deep end.a sink or swim approach. The training protocols can be effective for those willing, able, and intelligent enough to sit through the many hours at a computer terminal to learn about there job. There is complete lack of effective communication at all levels. The current Management ignores my experience, while thinking they actually know better in regards to what I do, when it's fairly clear they don't.that has led to discontent, frustration, and being open to the many offers of employment in my career field.ĭue to the fact that this company has a very bad habit of putting people that are minimally, or not really qualified for certain leadership positions, IN those particular positions, chaos ensues.
In fact I am paid a lot more than my supervisor, and I suspect the other D.S.' s as well. Lowe's Corporate somehow does, as their pay matrix accounts for the experience. One might think that I just might know what I'm doing in the job. I have over thirty years of experience in logistics, mostly as a Trucker. Every single day brings new challenges, which I personally like. The compensation and benefits are good for me, and what I do for the company as a CDL Driver. I have met some wonderful people, customers, and co-workers. I have been at this store for over 3 1/2 years.
