Vantaggi

Very fast pace. No time to get bored. At the store level, the associates (for the most part!) are wonderful, caring people who work very hard to achieve what is expected of them.

Svantaggi

Work/life balance doesn't exist for managers. If you are dedicated to providing the best service to your associates, it requires working between 60 - 70 hours per week during season (March - July). Company expectation is that you will work a minimum of 55 hours per week. At the store level, the managers work very hard to meet the company goals. The problem is that the goals change constantly so you never have the feeling that you are getting anywhere. Even worse, you never feel the sense of satisfaction of a job well done. Your arms get very tired trying to swim upstream all the time!

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
