The Home Depot

Huge, diverse infrastructure with a large variety of roles. The company is not going anywhere. There's a strong corporate culture and identity at the retail-store level. Regular telecommuting opportunities exist for permanent employees. It seems like there's a party of some sort almost every day at the office.

The corporate office is very political and bureaucratic. Contractors are not treated well and are made pawns in the political games. Redundant procedures and terrible time management are an epidemic within the corporate office. There is little standardization or cooperation between departments.

You're getting a bad reputation among contractors. Don't use them as cannon fodder to throw at projects that don't have a reasonable chance of success; they don't appreciate it.
