Pros

Not much can say on the positive side. Once QXO acquired Beacon Building Products.

Cons

Prior to the acquisition by QXO of Beacon Building Products. Always felt a sense of belonging and that under our former CEO's guidance we had a solid direction and foundation of steady growth. The "Hostile" takeover in April has change that dynamic. We are no longer comfortable, and everyone that I deal with are all actively looking for new opportunities. It can be stated well we are growing and moving forward. Have seen since April two rounds of "Reorganizational Layoffs" of key members of the organization. It's terrifying. Brad maybe trying to grown the organization and turn it into a powerhouse. But do not see the positive results on the People Side. Really thought was going to spend my career with the organization. Now it's time to leave and I'm not alone. So, if your looking for opportunities within QXO. Be very cautious and when interviewing at at Branch level or Corporate would recommend discussing recent layoffs and long term opportunities. Now we are in a "Bidding" war for a drywall company. Heaven help those folks. Ya the investors may reap short term rewards but for a long-term growth. Not seeing it.

Pros

Highly recommend not working here. The people that work here are extremely difficult to deal with. You will get yelled and screamed at on the daily and will always be in the wrong. Your opinion doesn’t matter and If you speak you will be spoken over. When you work here you will be treated as if you are nothing.

Cons

The worst job I ever had. No communication between office and warehouse employees. You will be scrutinized and criticized on the daily. If you are up In the office you can do no wrong. Anyone outside of the office will be humiliated and scolded like a child for any small mistake they make. Very unprofessional and immature work culture that aims to make the job more difficult then it needs to be with constant demoralization and micro management. If you speak up with any opinion or comment that challenges upper management you will be targeted and abuse of their power will be used against you. No room for growth is attainable at this company, whatever position you get hired as is the one you will stay at.
