"Ace is the Place!!!"

What do you like about working at Ace Hardware?

"Family friendly. If you need to leave early, they are great about it. Not expected to stay late if you accomplish your work. Corporate culture is good. Demands made on you are low."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"It takes a long time to get a call back. This is basically a non-profit corp, so things move at a slow speed."

What don't you like about working at Ace Hardware?

"No onsite gym. Cafeterial food sucks! But really, it's a pretty good place. You could do A LOT worse."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"More giveaways- we have so much product and samples around the office, it would be great to be able to take something home once in a while. Should be casual dress code everyday, not just on Friday. Should also let you work from home @ least one day a week."
