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!!

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

Pros

Great benefits, especially eye care. Homer awards provide cash bonuses and success sharing adds a nice bonus to associates especially supervisors who get double payout.

Cons

As a department supervisor you are essentially the low man on the totem pole. Everything falls on you and you are stuck being coverage instead of being able to properly run your department. It's much easier in small volume stores but much harder in medium to high volume.
