Pros

The pay is halfway decent. Could be better. I also enjoyed working with the people at my store. I liked my immediate team.

Cons

The general office spreads a toxic culture. John Menard is a bully who doesn't trust or respect anybody. He puts enormous pressure on people. He assumes that nobody working for him has anywhere else to go. Some don't. The pressure works on them. Others take it for a few years and then wise up and realize: "hey, I'm just here to make a few bucks. I'm not going to be here forever." Then you can start planning out your future after Menards and life gets so much better.
