      Retail needs to focus on more open minded compensation, benefits and work schedules to sustain movement.

      Pros

      Availability to training and growth opportunities allow a person to "grow" where they want to go.

      Cons

      Compensation and scheduling does not make it an inviting place for people to come or to stay. There are many other companies leading and setting trends which the Home Depot refuses to look at in order to keep good people

      Pros

      I have met alot of great people working at the Home Depot. I have also learned alot about working with people that I dont like and staying under the radar when things get too political. For the most part I have been lucky with the store managers that I have had. I have been able to raise my family, taking time off when needed without any problems. Only one store manager did not keep his word out of the 17 that I have had. I think thats a pretty good number. Working for Home Depot has been, for the most part, a good thing for me and my family

      Cons

      politics and personalities and no checks and balances. One person can make your life hell and if that person is in good with a higher up, your done until they get promoted from kissing butt. Town Halls crack me up because no one is ever honest in them. The review process of having round tables are really stupid because, for example,how is the recieving supervisor supposed to comment on a cashier performance when that supervisor basically stays in the back and the cashier is in the front. There should only be the dept head, asm and maybe store manager involved in an associate review all the other comments are needless and a waste of time.

      Pros

      It is a change a day environment, and that is what retail is. It is the ability to adapt to change. It is constant 180s march north as fast and as hard as you can now turn south and go right back to where you started. I have learned a ton about business through this company. The ability to travel. the knowledge you can absorb is phenomenal if you (A) Want to learn. and (B) If people are not afraid to share in fear for there job. The Orange Blood pumps through me but it drains quickly and so quietly.

      Cons

      Ridiculous hours of operation is it really necessary to be open from 6 am to 10 pm , lack of respect for associates will and need to be with there family's on holidays. The ability for certain people to call in every other day and keep there job for 6 months and others call in one time in 6 months and get ridiculed for it for 2 weeks, but i have learned also there are no ethics in business. So I digress to this I am a glorified baby sitter who is treated like i am 12 years old and my thoughts and ideas go unwanted or warranted for fear of being upstaged.
