The key word in that title is general, so wherever your business needs you, that’s where we’re going to shift you. From the moment you walk through these doors, you start feeling welcomed. You are part of the family. That’s just tradition for us. Home Depot is a great company to work for simply because they want you to grow.
I have never had a 401K on any job I’ve ever had and this one was the first. They are taking care of me and I thank them for that every day. Merchandising is a very physical job.

I do love working for The Home Depot, because I just think it’s a wonderful place to work. I love the bonding, co-workers, and most of all I like the advancement that the company has. The hours, the time we come in, the time we get off. I still have time to do things in the afternoon and in today’s economy, you want to have a job you know is going to be there. They are not getting ready to go out of business.
You have a store of people that are willing to help you accomplish your goal. Because it’s like one big family. Lots of trucks coming inbound to unload and then we are loading trucks to go to stores, so there is a lot of forklift traffic.

And I can take this anywhere. It’s helped me lose weight, so that’s why I really like it. My gosh, the benefits are even better than I thought. We get the employee stock purchase plan. I feel confident to maybe one day open my own small business.
And there is always an available store, if I was to move state to state in a transfer. They want you to do your job fast. They want you to do your job effectively, but they also want you to have fun when you do your job.
Store Employee
They don’t want you to be stuck at one position. So if you want to further your career at The Home Depot, this is the place to be. Oh what makes me good at my job is that I’m a people person. I like to talk to people. I just generally enjoy being around folks.
It’s helped me save money. A 401k is an amazing program we have here. I needed something that was going to go around my schedule out of the building. I was able to come in and work in the morning, which is usually about six o’clock to maybe twelve o’clock. And then I went to school and then came back and closed the store, like from five to ten pm.

By the end of the day, I’ve usually walked about seven to eight miles. They have been very good about working with me. There’s sometimes where I’ve been able to take nights off, but work a little bit longer on another night. So they’ve been very flexible. You have to be willing to work independently. You have to be willing to work quickly.
The kind of problems I solve are anything mundane from how to fix a sink. Sometimes it’s crazier stuff like hey my kid needs to build a T-REX out of pvc. And the things you learn on the job are things that can directly help you. If you have an apartment, if you have a home, if you want to go out on your own and do contractor handyman work, you’re going to learn so much. Vacation time and the company is very good if you need a day off. It’s challenging, but that’s a good thing if that makes sense, because there’s a lot going on.
If you stay busy and keep working, you’ll notice that the nights and things go by as fast as possible. Here they treat you like family. Our main focus is getting product in front of customers quickly. Customer service skills is one of the main things that Home Depot has truly truly helped me out with.
I love my fellow peers and my management team. They’re wonderful people to work with. So the work that we do here at night is basically we unload trucks. And then we, as a team, pack everything out onto the shelves. Make sure that the shelves are packed down and straightened fully.
You’re not just doing one thing, you’re doing several things at one time. Impeccable single story with no steps. Wide open floorplan bursting with natural light. Amenities include hardwood flooring, fruitwood stained cabinetry, island kitchen and lovely views from the rear. Features include a gas cooktop and island kitchen, central vacuum and grab bars in the shower and W/C. It just doesn't get any better.
Our management has cook outs for us. It’s just all around a good company to work for. I’ve been in other industries and I would never leave Home Depot, because I love the working environment.
