Pros

-Ace Hardware is always hiring

Cons

-For the Replenishment Planner role the ACE farms Michigan State, Iowa State, and Marquette for new grads to underpay them and routinely underpays for supply chain personnel instead of promoting existing employees -Due to the low pay and lack of opportunities company has extremely high turnover and brain drain. Most departments are highly unorganized and ineffective due to all experienced personnel leaving for better jobs. -Poor Management that is out of touch with regular employees. Due to the rotating carousel of employees coming in and out management has given up on trying to build relationships and seems to come to work to collect a check. -Click based intolerant culture. Only one demographic makes up most of the office and if you are different the work environment is an uphill battle.

Pros

There are not too many.

Cons

Long hours; indefinite out times; no flexibility; poor communication; lack of respect for warehouse worker is built into the culture; toxic environment with petty politics and high school type drama; rules applied based on convenience and like ability and not job performance; office management is out of touch with the warehouse environment and work processes, this means implanted solutions are usually underwhelming and off track; continued feedback is requested and given but those issues are ignored over and over. Responses are band aids at best and flagrant disregard is more likely. No planning for busy season- WHERE IS THE BENCHMARKING?!; understaffed, under resourced, and over managed (with about 3 more layers of middle management than is needed). The environment is dirty, not temp controlled, warehouse staff is expected to housekeep in addition to the actual job. This job is incentive based and NOTHING is valued but faster- until you make a mistake and then you’re reminded about safety and quality.
