Pros

This is a customer service business so most people are very supportive and friendly. Lots of great long-term customer relationships. Lots of enthusiasm and strong sales focus.

Cons

- Male, pale and very stale - Toxic politics at senior levels - Promotion depends on who you know and how good your golf is ! - Lots of ‘initiatives’ that didn’t embed - Had values but didn’t live them - Bullying culture at board level that was never challenged and flowed down through the business. HR knew about it and remained silent. - France have no idea that the UK business is so fundamentally weak - Well intentioned, enthusiastic but often amateur approach to a number of key areas

Pros

Rexel is the type of company where you can create your own career path and development. The work is valued aligned with the efforts in concrete achieved objectives. The international and decentralized strategy is an interesting way of working for different departments. The opportunity to be in touch with people that is expert in different fields is very valuable. Working around digital topics is a great opportunity within Rexel.

Cons

In some situations, they act with an old fashion way of working (not communicating on time, careful about hiding information, etc.) Lack of vision from some managers that are responsible for the development of key good employees. As an employee is important to always share your own vision of your career path, if this does not happen there are some opportunities that can be missed.
