Pros

Overall, the company is good to work for. As far as retail is concerned, the pay and benefits on the higher end. The company works hard to ensure that you have the tranining you need to suceed.

Cons

The compnay refuses to acknowledge that people have a life outside of the company. Full time employees at my location are not allowed to have one set night a week off of work for outside events. The higher you go the more hours you work and you are not compensated for it. I often will see my managers in working on their days off. The culture of the company sold by the corporate office is dramatically different that what people find in the stores.

Pros

The Home Depot has a solid moral compass. They aren't about sacrificing their ethics for the sake of a sale, which I love. They also hire a diverse group of people and give a lot back to the community. They offer a lot of benefits and little treats for their employees. Although they push their associates to meet quota, they're realistic about what can and can't be accomplished.

Cons

Home Depot has two different sides to it. Store associates and those of us considered "store support" who are payed by the vendors but work in the stores 100% of the time. I constantly hear about how store associates are stressed out by management and their hours are being rearranged a lot, cut, and they often are stretched thin due to lack of full staffing. "Store support" associates who do merchandising have it better than those who work in specific departments. However, you never really gain knowledge unless you have the time to look things up and read packaging.
