Pros

My immediate team is filled with good people. It’s a large company.

Cons

Lower than industry salary/bonuses/RSUs with the promise of good culture and job security. Those two no longer exist. RTO poorly handled and initiated a few months after promising employees that we would not be returning. Rigid days/hours in the office. Less flexibility than there was pre COVID, effectively treating employees like children. 2 years in seat minimum. Another new initiative that prevents employees from taking laterals or promotions to have a somewhat competitive salary. Only way to make more money now is to leave. This company has recently made it clear that it doesn’t not value its employees and would rather they leave so they can bring in newer cheaper talent.

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.
