Pros

The opportunity to interact with customers on a daily basis. Instant Profit Sharing. Menards Memos. Eclectic prodect mix.

Cons

The lack of trust on the part of the General Office for anyone (including General Managers) at the store level. The utter disregard of the company for life outside of Menards. The necessity of moving great distances in order to advance beyond the department management level. The pay scale is woefully inadequate.

Pros

A few of the people are nice to work with.

Cons

A store manager who talks down to employees like they're children (and apparently gets promoted for it). A store manager who acts like employees are idiots for calling him to ask questions. Raises are pathetic. Understaffed because the store manager won't allow enough labor hours to do the job, particularly on Sundays when there's a lot of freight.
