Pros

Ferguson has an expansive footprint and there is opportunity especially if you are willing to relocate. Benefits are good priced.

Cons

Low pay even for the industry. 401k is bad. Incompetence runs rampant Must be on east coast in order to ascend Senior leaders are not very competent Pushes Ferguson kool-aid heavy to make up for taking advantage of employees. District and regional managers struggle with basically accounting and most lack the ability to actually read a financial statement. Credit department is actually ran by sales managers since they decide your pay…so it’s going to be low. West Coast is disfunctional. Toxic management at local levels and in Newport News.

Pros

Huge office space and freedom to work independently in break rooms instead of being stuck at a desk. They have many opportunities for growth but the high paying roles are salaried and are paid once a month instead of biweekly. Overall a great company with good benefits

Cons

Lower pay than normal for the work

Pros

None, I would say remote work but it’s very toxic.

Cons

Poor leadership (manager and director), poor communication, poor training, unrealistic m expectations, micromanagement, no SOPs, lack of structure, FLSA violations, no upfront disclosure of what role is, stingy management. People outside of HR are great. In HR? They’re happy to lay people off and talk about it so casually during meetings. Think “it’s our yearly layoffs” and joking about catching people “slipping”. No opportunities for growth despite saying there was during interviews. Interview and reality are worlds apart. No diversity. Severe control issues. No new people have been hired in over 3 years yet multiple people have left so people are burnout. One person handles all of one process alone and management thinks that’s ok. For reference the same process takes 10-11 associates in the same sized org. I can go on. Stay away!!!
