Pros

Rexel was the parent company of Platt Electric and had a large footprint in the Electrical and Lighting Distribution market across the USA. It has a broad reach with local manufacturers and global partners. The management seeks to promote from within.

Cons

The company needs to update and upgrade their website to allow customers to find specific items they need and also be able to purchase it with ease. The website is not easy to navigate and there are many hoops potential customers must jump through in order to place an order. The availability of items was also an issue usually accompanied with longer lead times than their comptetitors.

Pros

Decent company benefits and strong talent at the branch and sales level.

Cons

Gulf regional leadership is not effectively supporting the revenue-producing teams closest to the customer. What often presents as process, training, or accountability instead creates confusion, frustration, and reporting burden for branches and salespeople. When metrics become the focus instead of the support system, they inundate the field with activity, hinder execution, and create friction instead of progress. The company has talented salespeople, branch leaders, and field operators who understand the customers, markets, systems, and daily operating reality, but too many are underutilized while gaps are protected or explained away. That is how performance declines quietly: strong employees disengage, honest feedback gets filtered, and the company starts mistaking activity for execution. This is not a branch-level talent problem; it is a Gulf regional execution problem.
