Pros

Between both times working for 84 Lumber I have 5 years with the company. Definitely have way more support for the team than any other company. It is a family atmosphere when you work there. 84 Lumber in the past few years has been growing internally to help the front line associate’s. Being in a department in which I get to see a lot of our stores helps me realize how much help is available. The stores are all different not one is the exact same. Based on the location and the building that is going on in there area.

Cons

There is no Con’s. You get what you put into the company.

Pros

employees are nice and if you're a guy you'll excel at this company.

Cons

0 work life balance, you work 45 hour weeks salaried so no over time. You barely get any holidays off. The first year you work at 84 depending on what month you start depends on your vacation days. You won't get two weeks vacation until your second year then you don't get anything more until you 10th year at the company. Work from home is like a sin to this company they barely did it during the pandemic. There are more cons than pros working for this company.
