Pros

It's a very easy job. You basically wander around telling lost customers where to find super glue or duct tape.

Cons

They pay you nothing and you get no hours. This is a job for retirees or to make some extra cash in the evenings. Don't pursue a career here.

Pros

The best thing about Home Depot was the people I worked with. There used to be a lot of vets working there. Not so much now.

Cons

The management team from the lowest assistant manager to the CEO SUCKED. After Bernie and Arthur left all they cared about was filling their pockets with cash we generated. Hell, they paid that worthless CEO $25 MILLION TO LEAVE!!! They were offering good hard working people FIVE CENTS an hour. Don't insult us!!

Generally offer great pay and total compensation package There is plenty of interesting work as the company continues to evolve There are a lot of good people here They are in the process of changing their approach to how things get done. Starbucks on site in the SSC

Cons

The health benefits package sucks It is a very cutthroat and competitive environment Some management does not live by the company's core values. The company survives on PowerPoint
