Decent Entry-Level Job

Pros

I enjoyed working here because the coworkers were kind and supportive. Mike Wood, the manager, was incredibly supportive and willing to work with my schedule.

Cons

Low pay with little to no room to change that. I wish there were opportunities to earn more money and learn more skills.

Owned by racist couple, but I’m not speaking for all ace hardwares, just this one. And this was back in 2015
