Pros
Decent benefits - stock options included Competitive salary based on the industry/market Lucrative quarterly bonuses Casual work environment Somewhat flexible schedule
Cons
Talent Management/Acquisition within Home Depot is very politically driven. Your success and upward mobility is based on who likes you within the organization not the work you do. Upper management lacks strategic vision, strong leadership capabilities, the ability to build and motivate teams, ability to grow and develop teams, fairness and the ability to make sound decisions. There is a lack of work/life balance within the organization. Employees are overworked and under appreciated. Responding to emails and working after 8PM is normal and somewhat expected. There is also a lack of respect for employees who are not Sr. Manager level or above. If you're good at playing the "Blame Game" and "Being Thrown Under The Bus" constantly doesn't bother you, then this is the right organization for you to work for.
