Pros

I have been with the company for less than a year but so far so very good! The work is challenging yet flexible, and the people are very supportive. I confirm what other reviewers say: good benefits at Graymont! There is a great team spirit and it feels wonderful to be surrounded by and have access to competent people. The company is committed to improving its environmental footprint so this is clearly a plus for people that care about sustainability in their job/career.

Cons

The company is relatively hierarchically "flat" so there may be limited upward opportunity compared to a larger corporation. Too early to tell. Yet, it is very refreshing to be part of a lean, no non-sense, well-oiled organization. It has been tough to join a new company during COVID and not being able to experience face-to-face interactions to further build working relationships. But my guess is that it would have been even tougher in a company that is not truly engaging in a collaborative culture like Graymont is.

Pros

None at this time. This job sounds great at first, but is terrible at the end.

Cons

I would not recommend this company if you value transparency, flexibility, and a supportive work environment. While Graymont presents itself as flexible, that was not my experience. There was little to no accommodation for real family emergencies, which made balancing personal responsibilities extremely difficult. It was also made clear—directly and indirectly—that asking questions about your role or responsibilities was not encouraged. This created an environment where communication felt one-sided and employees were expected to simply comply rather than understand their work. There was no real sense of psychological safety. Speaking up, seeking clarification, or raising concerns didn’t feel welcomed, which can make day-to-day work stressful and isolating. If you’re looking for a workplace where expectations are rigid, communication is limited, and flexibility is more of a claim than a reality, then this role may suit you. Otherwise, it may not be the best fit.
