Pros

Good people, can be a fun place to work. Good store managers. When a customer gets the kind of help they need or when they learn something about a new product or how they can do something for themselves, it can be very rewarding on a personal level. The better the service, the better the sales, the happier the customer and they will return again and tell a friend.

Cons

No A/C during the summer season. Corporate / Regional management cut employee hours because of slow economy and sales. The customer feed back is there is never enough sales staff to help them and therefore they shop somewhere else. Not enough sales staff equal not enough sales.

Pros

The best thing about home depot is the training you receive when you are first hired on (depends on the department). The trainers are great and very knowledgeable. After your training you feel as if you can take on the world and that everything will be great.

Cons

The quality of some of the employees being hired is really bad in management and regular. Management is the main problem. It seems that they do not have a class on respecting hourly employees. You can be a good strong manager and still look after and treat your hourly people well.
