Pros

I was part of the CommData (low voltage) team. I had great coworkers and I enjoyed the camaraderie in the office. Being an employee owned company seemed to create a certain culture where people supported one another. There were also some good perks (company car, option to buy employee stock, profit sharing).

Cons

I feel the company could have done better with onboarding. I came in to the company after being in the workforce for a number of years, so I didn't learn the internal systems the way that those that had "grown up" with the company did. Additionally, I felt the pay was low given my work experience and education.

Thank you for leaving a review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your work environment and team members. We have wonderful employees and strive to make Graybar a welcoming place to work. Regarding your comments about onboarding, we are working to improve that experience now with a new onboarding solution but we do agree learning some of our systems like SAP or our products can take some time. We will continue to work on ways to make that easier.
