Pros

I have gained a lot of skills in the last few years as far as being to problem solve and multi-task during stressful times. My supervisor is easy to work for.

Cons

It used to be a good place to work. has gone It has gone downhill in the last 3 years. They want to do more with less which has become tiring. We got our profit sharing taken away 2 years ago which has really driven down morale. Management is a bunch of sycophants who are afraid to speak up because they are afraid to lose everything they have worked for.

Pros

Great company to move up/around in. They have a ton of support although some of that support better than others. Definitely recommend joining the Grainger Team. Great for new and tenured sales people.

Cons

As you move up in the company it is political on if you get the role.

Pros

Competitive (not top tier, but competitive) compensation and benefits. Gym onsite & decent cafeteria that's usually a little more affordable than takeout. Mostly great coworkers. Personally enjoy work-life balance. Internal mobility is there, in abundance, but it's not highly visible or equitable and you'll need your leader's blessing so hustle and get a sponsor.

Cons

Principles plastered everywhere aren't commonly demonstrated. Do the right thing? :/ Everything else is variablly dysfunctional by team or department: days in office, accountability, effort, rewards, infrastructure/tools, workload, budget. Sales-centric org where the rest of the company is 10-20 years behind most modern orgs in structure, performance management, employee experience, skills based L&D, peer recognition, continuous improvement, etc.
