      Orange Titanic hasn't been sunk.

      Pros

      Home Depot was once a leader in it's business. Unfortunately, Bob Nardelli destroyed that. Fortunately, they are getting back to their roots, and refocusing on what made them great to begin with. Under the leadership of Frank Blake, they will once again rise to the top and all who are a part of that success will reap the rewards.

      Cons

      The past few years have been difficult for Home Depot. The previous Senior Leadership could be compared to an orange Titanic. Bob Nardelli came in and sucked the life out of the company. Even though he is gone, he has left a devastating legacy. Couple that with the sagging US economy. The Home Depot has a long, bumpy road ahead and it's going to make for a very intense work environment.

      Great Challenge, Great Job, Love The Home Depot

      Pros

      Not only is every day different than the one before it, but if your position does become boring or redundant there is plenty of oppurtunity to advance, try other departments, etc. The Home Depot has shown that if you want to advance and take on the higher positions and challenges they will get you there.

      Cons

      It is a stressfull job. However if you are looking for a challenging career this is it. There are times you feel that you do not have enough time in the day, or week, but if you use your people properly they will help you complete tasks.

      Pros

      I like the fact that they switch managemet at least every to years. The new managers have new ideas and they try to put them in place. The District Manager Bob is the best district manager we have had since we opened in August 2004. He is very understanding and listens to the associates and their concerns if they have any. He will also jump in and help on the floor if he is needed. It looks like we are going to make our sales for the quarter, which means we will sucsess share and receive a nice check in sept.

      Cons

      the management team are not team players. If the management team can not work together, how in the hell do we expect the associates to work together. # 6176 has been like this since August 2004. Laying off all HR was a mistake. Now we have no one to turn to but a telephone if you have any issues with a manager or an associate. Management play favorites to a few selected associates and let's them have what ever they want, when the want it. Reviews are never done on time since we have lost our human Res. manager, Connie.
