Pros

Great company. They train you on every aspect of the job. They always treated their people right. Diverse environment allows for idea creation.

Cons

Sometimes long hours. Training at times could have been better. Some MITs had better training managers than others. I was forced to learn on my own at times.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback. A trainee has three reports to help him/her progress in the knowledge of CED and the electrical industry: the PC Manager, Division Manager and the Training Manager. We've added an additional training manager to make the territories smaller and spend more time with the trainee in his/her respective territories. However, we do advise trainees that it's the manager's job to make resources and training tools available to the trainee; we cannot force anyone to take advantage of those resources. We encourage trainees to take charge of their individual career and take advantage of everything we offer.

Thank you for your feedback and for your participation in our internship program. We are disappointed to hear that you didn't get enough exposure to other aspects of our business. Although we have everyone start in the warehouse in order to learn the business from the ground-up, we also strive for our interns to experience other responsibilities so that we can help young professionals discover an area of the business they most enjoy.

Pros

Profit Centers run individually, but still have corporate offices to back them up. Relaxed dress code. Opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Profit sharing can be great, can be nothing. Benefits are just ok. Salaries are typically lower than other companies
