Pros

It is an enjoyable place to work. In general my fellow associates are friendly and helpful when the need arises. I had been trained on multiple warehouse lift machines within the first 3 months of my employ. As long as you are a positive worker and look towards moving up in a company Home Depot is the place to go.

Cons

The one major downside I have seen is the schedule. If you are a full time employee such as myself Home Depot demands alot of time, no I dont mean that you work more than 40 hours a week but they make your schedule so erratic that it is hard to plan ahead.

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.
