Pros

If you are willing to negotiate aggressively it is possible to get a competitive salary in SOME areas. They do not offer any sort of career guidance and HR is practically non-existent, but if you take ownership of career and network internally you can advance within the company. Also, I enjoyed almost all of the people who with and made great friends.

Cons

The work- life balance is tough. 55+ hour weeks are typical within the finance organization and some areas of merchandising

Pros

Home Depot has good insurance benefits: health, dental, and vision if you are full time employee. Home Depot encourages balance of work and personal/family time.

Cons

Home Depot Milpitas does not usually hire full timers. If you start as a part time, it is difficult to apply for full time. The Management at Home Depot, Milpitas this year (2010) has been very bad: favoritism, incompetent, disrespectful, coward and bullies.
