Business outlook
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.
