"Good place if you don't have any college education." - Manager Trainee Menards Employee Review

Must be willing to relocate out of state for advancement. Menards support on relocating is $1.00 raise and will contribute to half a U-Haul, and 3-4 nights in a hotel. If you have a college degree this program is a joke. You will be underpaid. You will not learn anything. You literally will have to commit to more than 45 hrs a week even if you get promoted all the way up to General Manager. "Retail Hours" typically 6:30am to 10pm. Every week your schedule will be different. A majority of the managers and higher-ups have no college education. So it can be sometimes difficult to communicate and you can expect them to make many mistakes. Raises. ""a joke"" you get a .10 ""cents"" raise every 6 months of employment and you max out at $2.50. (So for example you currently make $11.50hr. and after you have worked for 12.5 years you get $14hr.) (note that doesn't include promotion raises)
