      Walking contradictions are creating a climate of anger and confusion within Home Depot.

      Pros

      Flexible work schedules are given along with paid vacation and paid sick leave, which is a plus. Paid Time Off is hard to ignore as a great benefit especially when businesses are downsizing this aspect of the benefits. Decent Medical Coverage is also a plus, which is currently going under a change.

      Cons

      Management seems to be lacking actual action. There are too many Department Head and Assistant Managers who expect a lot from associates without attempting to lift a helpful hand.

      Decent opportunity, especially for retail management

      Pros

      There's a lot of job security at the Home Depot. Also, the pay is pretty decent for retail if you are older and have specialized knowledge. In addition the benefits are good if you are a full time employee, I was part time and did not use the part time benefits but I reviewed them and they seem to be kind of disappointing for part timers. Also, the Home Depot seems to really like hiring veterans, which is cool.

      Cons

      Some grueling work, depending on the position. Also, we lost our store HR manager shortly after I was hired. The store changed the nature of the position that I was in and intended on hiring more people to match this realignment, but with no permanent full time HR professional they were slow to hire new people into this position, and that caused a lot of problems as the position was understaffed and turnover was high.

      A good job if you are retired or need to make some extra cash.

      Pros

      It is easy and the people are friendly. Lots of fun activities. The Home Depot reaches out to community. Success Sharing. There is the oppurtunity to learn something you didn't know before. You are trained pretty well for any department you are going to work in.

      Cons

      It doesn't offer much for advancement, and the sales side of things can get redundant. Everyday is the same. If you like to work a set schedule, this is not the place for you. Even the higher end management in the individual stores have to work weekends, and your schedule is always all over the place.
