Home Depot Canada Reviews

Great people working there in IT department

Cons

None, everything there was good

Cons

- Cashier rules are very strict and if you don't follow them to a t they are difficult to work with. (ex. having to ask every customer at every transaction if they would like a credit card even if they are daily customers) - Difficult to get time off or have them work around your schedule

Cons

1. Very physical work, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Pros

Lots of great coworkers, great place to exercise multiple skills and interactive customer services.

Cons

Poor management. Trying to move up is near impossible unless you are friend or family. Under qualified people that do not have any experience rise to the stars and qualified people are held back. Not just a personal experience but an observation of many coworkers. Watch students work a couple of years and then rise to management or even head office who are related to people in head office or are store managers. The worst part is knowing they are keeping you because they need your knowledge and experience and ask it if you often but will not let you move to another position. Recognition is mostly badges and often thankless.

Pros

Nice Co workers to work with

Cons

The Pay was very low

Pros

- Success Share is usually high - you get it twice a year - Option to buy stocks - Tuition reimbursement - Homedepot is pretty stable so low chance of layoffs.

Cons

New hires barely get practically trained. You kind of learn as you make mistakes, but if you make a mistake you will be told off by manager/supervisor even though you weren't trained. Supervisor was quite rude, micromanaged and management tries to act like your "family" and asks about personal problems to use it later. against you. Work is relatively slow-paced and boring, involved: stocking, answering customer questions on phone and in person. If you're afraid of heights, then this may not be the place for you. High turnover rate in my department. Other departments with better supervisors had people staying for years. It's retail so just do your job and go home. Management is NOT your friend.
