Menards reviews

Once you get to a level past the Management Training Program, you are asked to sign a document that makes you look like a bad employee. This I imagine, is used to hold over your head. I view this as manipulative. I don't sign what isn't true. TM's often fearful for losing their job. "Hard Work" is a misconstrued value at Menards. "Hard Work" is decidedly not tolerant of "enjoyment at work" Culture of arrogance and fear of losing job because of "looming violations".

Work/Life Balance is nonexistent, the CEO is a pompous jerk who only cares about his bottom line. The "Discount" is a joke, comes out of your pay. Direct management is either too lenient or will passive-agressively micromanage you to death. On top of that all the General Office regularly tunes into the cameras in any given store to even further micromanage, leading to a workplace atmosphere of control through fear that Big Brother is watching and will audit you if they even think you're not doing everything 100% by the book. Heavily LGBT Unfriendly.
