Pros

The people you work with that aren't management/supervisors. You will like shopping there when your not working as it is more affordable then competing hardware stores

Cons

The micromanagement...thats says plenty...will watch you like a hawk, Roaming down aisles lurking to make sure your not doing something as simple as talking WHILE your working...they don't like that an you will be reprimanded. That store (Livonia, MI) is often the hardest hit store as far as customer volume an the management doesn't appreciate their employees despite this. They care more about the numbers an not the employees keeping their "numbers" high. Constant work overload of pallets/heavy lifting. They will make you run register even if it's not your department or initially what you were highered in to do so.

Pros

40+ Hours per week of work guaranteed.

Cons

A toxic work environment can lead to termination without warning. Senior management prioritizes their interests and the company’s well-being, often disregarding employees’ rights and legal obligations. HR’s role is to protect senior management and the company, potentially at the expense of employees’ rights. Senior management continually chooses to a blind eye to wrong doing of favored employees, while knowingly prioritizing punishment of lower employees using fabricated policies that aren’t actually within store policy and procedures. Lack of accountability, lack of transparency, and lack of integrity run rampant with in the store and company. Unethical hiring practices, and weaponized incompetence to justify the out right gaslighting of your financial income and incentives. Pay deductions common place.
