Pros

The pay is competitive with other companies and the benefits are better than most retail stores. The customers that I encounter are fantastic for the most part, and management is very supportive.

Cons

The shifts tend to be scattered all over the board, which makes it difficult for a life outside work, and the interviewing process for promotions is too structured, which allows for someone with great speaking skill but not really qualified for the position to be promoted.

Pros

The Home Depot has a solid moral compass. They aren't about sacrificing their ethics for the sake of a sale, which I love. They also hire a diverse group of people and give a lot back to the community. They offer a lot of benefits and little treats for their employees. Although they push their associates to meet quota, they're realistic about what can and can't be accomplished.

Cons

Home Depot has two different sides to it. Store associates and those of us considered "store support" who are payed by the vendors but work in the stores 100% of the time. I constantly hear about how store associates are stressed out by management and their hours are being rearranged a lot, cut, and they often are stretched thin due to lack of full staffing. "Store support" associates who do merchandising have it better than those who work in specific departments. However, you never really gain knowledge unless you have the time to look things up and read packaging.
