      Pros

      Pay and benefits are very competitive if not better. Managers aren't breathing down your neck all day. Promote within!! Available to work as much overtime as you want. Supply drinks water/Gatorade/coffee.

      Cons

      Warehouse could use some form of ventilation, it gets really hot in the summer and cold in the winters. They supply pants that are part of the uniform, i really don't like this i prefer to wear carpenter jeans. ( personal preference)

      A great company destroyed by Private Equity and terrible management the past 5+ years.

      Pros

      Benefits are very good; excellent supplier network and very dedicated employees. Great history- At one time the company excelled in local markets and was the company of choice for employees, suppliers and most importantly the customer. The company has a solid vision for its oil & gas business.

      Cons

      Private equity ownership and a very rattled management team. The new Downers Grove, IL headquarters and corresponding expense was not necessary regardless of how it's been sold. Customers don't care and suppliers simply want results. Look at Brenntag. A $10 billion chemical distribution company was built in Seattle, which is good enough for global industry leaders like Starbucks, Microsoft and Amazon. The latter is basically a distribution company with suppliers all over the world. I doubt these companies will be moving to be "closer to customers and suppliers." Key and experienced personnel have left in droves. It's all about boosting the short term balance sheet for the IPO.
