Pros

Benefits are better than most fortune 500 compnies. Automatically enrolled in profit sharing which is great. Health insurance is average.

Cons

Micromanaged daily not a place where your views and ideas are welcomed. If you are an individual who is looking for advancement this may not be the company for you.

Pros

PST is great, too bad we won't be around to enjoy it after June.30th 2012

Cons

The Midmarket ARM orginzation is the # 1 G.P. Profit center for Grainger and they are getting rid of them. No real room for advancement if you work inside sales.... If you say you're an ARM, it's like you said, you have the plague, and would you like a hug? They say it's about networking to get promoted.............true...........AND WHO DO YOU KNOW!!!!
