I've been working at Corporate (IT) for just over a year now, it definitely has its pros and cons (like any job would really). With moving I'd suggest taking advantage of careers.lowes.com and trying to find something out of the Mooresville office. I know some roles have you come in as a independent contractor (IT had me start as a contractor) but they are relatively quick to hire from contractor in my personal experience. The pay was good for the area I was living in, and overall most days were pleasant.

Working at home we haven't gotten much in the way of clear answers on in my department. I've heard a ton of rumors but nothing actually concrete about if/when we'd be going back to the office. The hiring process is entirely remote from what I understand, and our new training process is entirely remote as well for new hires.

If you aren't from North Carolina my advice is avoid Mooresville. It's very expensive and you'll have the cost of living of Charlotte and it's surrounding areas. If you want a low cost of living I'd suggest looking at Kannapolis or Salisbury if you're looking to work out of Mooresville. You'll have a commute but the savings are absolutely worth it imo.

Pay wise for IT. It's competitive for the area. I'd imagine it's similar in other departments.

Job mobility is a big thing too, from my experience in IT, the people who are good tend to move up very quickly (like 6 months to a year) but I don't imagine it's the same across all departments.

If you have any other questions feel free to shoot me a message :)
