Pros

Detail training, hands on experience, and working with some alright people, due to high turnover rates positions/promotions are always opening up ( don't know if that's a pro or con)

Cons

starting pay for a manger trainee with a college degree - 11 dollars an hour. Managers are totally taken advantage of by the company - most manager work close to 3,000 hours a year and makes less then $50,000. No work/life balance - your life is Menards!

Pros

Friendly place of work. Decent pay once in management. Flexible schedule. Bonuses.

No real incentives other than promoting into a role where you will be stretched too thin, under-appreciated and stuck with lacking leadership.
