      Pros

      In MA, time & half on Sundays, IF you get scheduled. The HD medical plan is a bit better than what the average hourly worker gets around town, (so I've been told), however, depending on your hourly rate it can be quite difficult to fully enroll in it. In fact it is the only item of the Benefits Package I can afford. HD also offers stock options and retirement plans to its employees, but again, if you can't afford the weekly deduction, what good are them. At the HD I'm employed at, mostly supervisors and mamagement are able to fully enjoy the benefits offered.

      Cons

      At the HD I labor at, (for the most), only negatives get noted. When management calls on you it is mostly to give you extra working orders or to point out your oversights and mistakes. Mistakes often related to training you never received. "Accentuate the Positive" is a tune they never heard. There is preferential treatment for a few lucky "friends". And you have to be flexible and available to be scheduled to work 7 days a week, randomly between 6AM & 10PM. If you need to find a second job in order to make end meet, you have to become a part-time employee or, like most, just quit.

      Pros

      There are opportunities to learn about all sorts of different areas of home improvement. The pay is decent compared to other retail jobs, and the customer base isn't all that obnoxious. Changing departments within a store helps keep the job interesting. The benefits are decent.

      Cons

      The people running the company are clearly idiots and that trickles down, inevitably. Your managers, and their bosses, are more likely to be "yes men" than competent, creative, etc. There is not genuine respect for the people at the bottom of the pay scale, who are the vast majority of the people working for the company.
