Easy and fun if you are a college student looking for part-time work - Would never be a full-timer, though! - Sales Associate Menards Employee Review

Pros

I got to set my own schedule & hours, Easy work, Very busy store (never bored - time flew by), Good co-workers, I enjoyed building floor displays, They don't give you radios so can kind of wander off and be free to work on what you like, college students aren't given 'real' responsibilities so it's not stressful

Cons

The company has loads of cameras and they watch you, they try to have you spy on each other and snitch (but nobody is motivated enough to do that), they treat their full-timers and managers somewhat poorly, the computer can suspend you for silly reasons and managers can't undo it, you have to use silly plastic cutters now instead of real box cutters

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
