Pros

Here a few reasons I like working at the Home Depot - The Brand - There is not a more recognizable name in Home Improvement. The Home Depot is authentic and real. If you want to redo your kitchen, install a garage door, and tile your bathroom all in one weekend - then you go to The Home Depot. If you want to pick out a pretty little lamp for your kids room - then go to Lowes. - The Real Estate - Home Depot did a tremendous job with their real estate position in the last 15 years. No other big box will be able to obtain remotely similar real estate in the top 10 Metro areas of the US. - International Growth - 10% of all revenue is now generated outside the US. The Home Depot now has a presence in Mexico, Canada, and China. - Cash is King - In one of the most horrible quarters (3Q08) in company history, The Home Depot still generated over $850M in cash. Compare this to other retail, autos or airlines. - The People - The associates at the store level are dedicated the customer experience. Without the individual behind The Home Depot apron - this company is nothing

Cons

I work in the corporate office (SSC) - I could easily mention the office politics that take place...but I would then have to mention the politics that take place in my church or my kids soccer league.
