Pros of working at Menards

My Dad wanted me to work for Menards, he loved Menards, I have finally been able to fulfill my promise to my Dad although I picked a Menards that is not managed well. I need your help! I love my job as a Cashier at Menards, although because of the bullying and lack of honesty I felt I had no choice then to quit, I did so as the bully ramped up. I very much want to Cashier again for Menards, I will continue to do a great job and help out anyway I can.

The store I was in needs new management, fair and understanding along with stopping negative behavior.

How would you improve Menards's culture?

Working with each other, simply saying hello to each other, teaching Menards edict along with stopping negative behavior so we can work as a team together to create success for all customers.

How did you prepare for the Menards interview?

I like diversity and different people and cultures. I believe we all have talents.

I so love Menards, I like the pace, my happiness, work ethic, trying to make each customer feel like they are the only customer in the store. I do want to find a store I can feel comfortable and give my 100 percent to the Menards my Dad always talked about.
