      Pros

      Part time work there is great for college students. They are very flexible in scheduling around my classes. The pay is pretty good also. They pay an extra 2.50 an hour for working the weekends.

      Cons

      I worked there for four years throughout college and when it came time for me to start my careers they were not allowed to be a reference. Managers are expected to give all of their time to Menards. Also there are no sick days at all no matter what. Health insurance is also very unaffordable.

      If you're not too smart, it helps with the situation.

      Pros

      The job itself is not difficult. There's morning paperwork, setting sale, etc. Waiting on "guests" can be both fun and a challenge. Some appreciate the help and advice. Others want to just pound on you. Co workers can be the same way but I'd say 90% or better are pleasant. You can earn more money with inventory bonus, spifs, profit sharing, etc. If your department is performing ok, the store management generally leaves you alone. There are tools available to make you successful in your job.

      Cons

      The hours and shifts can be very hard especially if you're trying to get off for family activities. The managers can be very demeaning with underperformers although few get fired. Not much room for creative thinking or thinking outside the box - Menard's has a system, you're expected to be a follower. Scary to think for most employees that this is the best job they'll ever have. As in any retail environment, you get customers you just want to pound the dust out of. When I look at the responsiblities and dollars, the hourly pay seems low but again, that's retail.
