Pros

Loved dealing with guests.

Cons

No balance between work/life. Your life is only Menards. Management was negative. Meetings consisted of disparaging remarks, offensive language and threats which did little to enhance motivation. Promotions and demotions occur frequently and with unjust cause.

Pros

You get to meet a lot of different kinds of people. In a retail setting it's bound to happen but some of my closest friends I have met while working for the company.

Cons

You can kiss your life goodbye if you are full time or management. Make sure you are able to plan life around the store. Pay isn't that great for managers either.

Pros

The only pros I can think of are pay which starts at $8.80, and $2.50 increase on weekends.

Cons

Managers dont train properly, me personally they wont even train so Im stuck with the hours im given, most managers seem to be younger and dont have enough experience.
