Vantaggi
The pay is good for the area with high school diploma. There are usually plenty of overtime. Profit sharing. Co-workers are helpful. Job stability is pretty good if your numbers are good.
Svantaggi
Pay raise not worth it. Ability to be promoted not likely. Managers and supervisors rarely give notices to employees about job/hours/etc changes until the hour (from personal experience I was told I was being moved to another area during my pay review without any advance notice. If I did not ask about my hours I would had never been told I start new hours immediately and only 1 manager knew about these changes out of the 3 on duty managers/supervisors). Can not trust what managers/supervisors say verses what they actually do. Culture of Menard lacking. Vacation/sick time. Benefits not very good. You work hard outside in high temp high humidity and managers/supervisors still want you to work harder. Managers/Supervisors don't honor transfer request due to skill in current area. Hours are not very good. Managers/Supervisors always nag employees to do overtime.
