Toxic workplace for women

Pros

Compensation was fair, work experience as merchant is valued experience externally (by other retailers), good people in stores & field

Cons

No work-life balance, corrupt & political executives lead by force & motivate by fear - no actual inspirational leadership skills, double standards abound, only women promoted are "mean girls", more collaborative & professional women bullied & treated like crap until they quit or are terminated

Pros

Good pay, good training, good coworkers. Lots of opportunity for professional growth. Easy to get stats and apprehensions. Benefits are good

Cons

Store managers have way to much say. Asset protection is to be independent of the store manager, not there personal errand boy

Pros

The company has name recognition. The products sold are high quality. The HDE software is user friendly. The HDE marketing program in place is workable.

Cons

Products are overpriced. The Home Depot Guaranteed installations are way oversold. The preset appointments are poor. Many are set on Internet ,and confirmed by leaving a voice message on phone. A rep could easily drive 800 to 1000 weekly. The company is aggressive on charging back misspecs.Field training is sporadic and weak. The sales rep is on your own. The pay is low compared other sales jobs.
