Pros

Flexible hours if you are part time in school. You learn about a wide range of products as well as gain valuable hardware knowledge. Great benefit if you ever want to more into Ace Hardware or True Value Corporate world. Physical work keeps you in shape especially during the summer.

Cons

Having to work weekends. The pay is pretty awful even if your stores profit is increasing. No room for growth unless you want to be a retail assistant or store manager. Stores are usually very under staffed. Very little vacation days that can't even be used when you want.

Pros

Stability and good benefits. Paid Time Off is amazing for most hourly employees. New CEO is agressive and company is really a leader in the industry.

Cons

Only career advancement in certain tracks. Most positions are very high pressure. Work/Life balance isn't very good at any level, though they do try.
