      Pros

      Can be fun place to work if you like being around hardware and tools and you want to sell something people need to get project done well. I enjoyed that part of it.

      Cons

      Ace Hardware Stores are Franchised own, depending who the owner of your particular store is- your can be very low. Minimum wage or less, no benefits mine was terrible. I doubt if the corporation as whole can do anything about it.

      Pros

      Good benefits and a performance based bonus

      Cons

      Senior staff does not support change. If it is not a concept developed by ACE it will not be listened to. Middle and senior management will not protect staff from the wrath of the plant manager. At the distribution level, you can not assure your continued employment with great production results. If you get on the bad side of the plant manager you will not be successful. You will work holidays in an unheated and non air conditioned environment.

      Pros

      Image of giant corporation but actually locally owned stores tailored to the community they serve.Can give you the feel of running your own business, depending on how oh hands the owner is.

      Cons

      The locally owned factor means each store will be managed differently. It all depends on the owner.
