"Home Depot is an excellent place to work. My co-workers are always friendly and make me feel welcomed, and I am very lucky to be working for such a supportive company through these difficult times in this pandemic.

"I would make sure that every employee, EVERY employee, has a good salary. Home Depot is probably the poorest paying store that I have ever been in. You guys have employees that can't even meet there bills with what you pay. It's actually an insult. I have moved from garden to flooring to flooring specialist and got a whole .50 for making Home Depot over 500,000 in six months. Sound fair to you"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Be honest, and be yourself. When hired, you will be hired as a temp, part-time. Take it and make the most of it. Learn all you can, and be seen doing so. Pitch in in other departments, learn all the stations (key machine, pipe threader, chain cutter, millwork). After about 120 days, they make the move to either drop you or offer something permanent. If you've done what I said, there's a better than average chance of getting full-time. When I did the switch, I was given a 25% raise. Just sayin'."
