Process
Overall, a great interviewing experience with Home Depot. I went through a phone screen with the recruiter and was then invited to the HQ in Atlanta for two 1:1 interviews with the Manager and Sr. Manager. A week later, they wanted another phone interview, but this time with the Regional Manager. Overall, typical interview questions, nothing too difficult.

The Home Depot Work Experiences

Competitive pay,

Engineer • Current Employee
August 28, 2014
Pros: Competitive pay, big company with growth opportunities. There are different opportunities in field and HQ. Good benefits overall, including 401K. Work-life balance depends on where you work.
Cons: Too many reorgs. Projects in supply chain implemented quickly, but lack enough analysis. Need to be more careful to analyze the projects before implementing and pilot them longer.

Mendacious, Backstabbing, Paranoid Culture
Engineer • Former Employee

Pros: No pros other than just having a place to get paid from.
Cons: This company is pathologically mendacious! Expect backstabbing, lies, and people being thrown under the bus.
I think they are similar to other companies that perform stacked performance management. Instead of being worried about the product or application that the IT department needs to deliver, people are worried about their standing in the performance stack and whether or not they will be managed out of the company. So, they make people afraid and paranoid.
