Pros

Got to work with a lot of peers my age and learn a lot of customer service skills in the time that I worked for Menards. I also got paid extra for working on the weekends and if you worked more than 1,000 hours a year, you got to participate in profit sharing.

Cons

They often have unrealistic expectations of you. I didn't call in frequently, but once I had to go to the ER for an ear infection and the Front End Manager was incredibly annoyed that I couldn't be in for my shift. Wasn't a terrible place to work, though.

Pros

Starting pay rate was good, like the weekend pay. Nice work environment. The guest are nice if u are, this place is good with rebates unlike other similar places.some good incentives if u work long enough and good deals here.

Cons

Some of the staff need to take a class on good customer service. Some not all on the management team don't understand Professionalism or even how to act professional.There is much need for time taken to get scheduling right (please get it together) and spend less time talking about people leads and asst.management (frontend).
