Pros

People are always coming to Home Depot (especially contractors). You really get to know alot of good people, maybe get some connections when you need a contractor, as well as learning a lot of new stuff about home improvement. Everyone is really nice, and you will always get a lot of friends, whether from other employees or customers. I have only been working at Home Depot for a couple of months, and I know everyone in my store (even night crew). Not only are those things great, but other things such as discounts (T-Mobile), and benefits. The Home Depot has a lot of benefits that can help anyone.

Cons

Some customers are just plain rude.

Pros

If you enjoy solving problems HD customers will provide an endless supply of them: some challenging and some easy fixes.

Cons

Once you hit Department Supervisor there is no clear cut path to the next level. If there is, none of the salaried management shares it. The process of getting promoted from DH to ASM is a mystery. Also, here's how the promotion would go in my case: Right now I earn $15 an hour and work 40 hour weeks. $32,000 a year. ASM's make $50,000 a year but work 55 hour weeks. For me that wouldn't really be a raise, it would just give me the Privilege of working 15 hours of overtime each week.
