Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear you like the people you work with and have participated in our philanthropy programs. We are concerned that you feel the career opportunities are limited. Sonepar USA provides many tools for associates to grow and develop their careers. Training EDU is our learning management system available to all associates. We also have Career Connections, our internal job posting board, to provide associates an opportunity to apply for new positions within Sonepar Management Group or within our operating companies. It is unfortunate that you were not able to take advantage of these opportunities, but it did allow for 19 SMG associates to be promoted internally in 2018. Communication is also very important to our organization. The Accounts Payable department conducts frequent meetings, so associates can provide feedback on processes and management can update their associates on team progress and changes within our business. Additionally, the Shared Service AP team members are aligned by OPCO allowing for easier collaboration and are encouraged to build relationships and partnerships with Sonepar’ s operating companies. We also provide quarterly Town Hall Meetings to ensure all associates know where the business is currently at. It is unfortunate that you have not been able to experience these scenarios or tools but we encourage you to reach out to your HR Leader to discuss your concerns and to learn more about our career and learning and development opportunities.

Pros

The culture is fantastic. We are a family owned company and you truly get that family feeling in the office! You couldn't ask for better partners or teammates. There is also a great work and family life balance.

Cons

I have yet to find one!
