Pros

You get $2.,50 extra an hour on weekends. In home training on the computer which they dont tell you about.. Also every time you should get a raise you have to take a test in order to get the raise.

Cons

Insurance is extremely expensive employees cannot afford it, low hourly pay, standing alot, hard floors, there are rules they never tell you which you must follow. No proper training, its learn as you go,. You may not be absent unless you bring in a doctors note otherwise its points taken off which means after a certain amount of points you get fired, this means if you have the flu either you come in or you will be fired if there is no doctors note, same for lateness, they dont listen to employee problems related to weather conditions. Menards policy says if for unforseen circumstances you cannot come in you cannot be taken points off but they take points off anyway and dont listen to their employees.

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.
