Pros

The benefits was the best part for me. The other employees were really friendly. I liked that I basically got to wear whatever I wanted just as long as no logo was showing. I was a cashier and I was able to work in different areas so I didn't have to do the same thing every single day. Whenever I had a problem, I was able to talk it out with my supervisor and it would get resolved.

Cons

Most of the cashiers were getting fired out of the blue. That's what happened to me. It seemed like the head cashiers were really bitchy all the time. It made me nervous when they were around just because they had a problem with everything. I overheard the head cashiers a lot saying who they didn't like and so on. All the new cashiers would somehow have money missing. It was just weird.

Pros

The Home Depot has a solid moral compass. They aren't about sacrificing their ethics for the sake of a sale, which I love. They also hire a diverse group of people and give a lot back to the community. They offer a lot of benefits and little treats for their employees. Although they push their associates to meet quota, they're realistic about what can and can't be accomplished.

Cons

Home Depot has two different sides to it. Store associates and those of us considered "store support" who are payed by the vendors but work in the stores 100% of the time. I constantly hear about how store associates are stressed out by management and their hours are being rearranged a lot, cut, and they often are stretched thin due to lack of full staffing. "Store support" associates who do merchandising have it better than those who work in specific departments. However, you never really gain knowledge unless you have the time to look things up and read packaging.
