Vantaggi

Nice people, so many people running around easy to take off to go on other job interviews, SAP, good company if you want to move around the country every 3-5 years

Svantaggi

Limited responsibility and opportunity to make decisions, Purchasing, Accounting, and Collections HQ in St. Louis is like working for for three different companies, Only way to move up within department is to relocate, Apply out of your department gets you a backroom meeting with the Director of you department wondering why you would want a different role (one hint $), granted it was entry level but very little challenge day to day, pay was so low I left before I could get moved up in St. Louis so I never saw the profit sharing plan, trainer said we were eligible for a 3% pay increase annually in first week, I found a job that pays 30% more after being with Graybar for less than a year,

Vantaggi

Many opportunities to learn about distribution and management. Pto is three weeks per year plus holidays and over a s Week of sick time. If you work here longer, you can buy enough company shares to receive a sizeable dividend each year. You are allowed to buy about 5% of your salary in company shares per year and then receive usually 20% of that back per year. The profit sharing plan contributes 10% of your salary to your 401k account but you need to be vested to keep it all.

Svantaggi

You will need a second job to live. Sales reps make way more and do half the work but they report to their managers much more. If you are a CSR, sales people feel entitled to treat you however they want and their manager will back them up. You are watched by coworkers and management like a high surveillance prison especially when you're new but they will leave you alone if you're good at your job after a year or so. Graybar brags about how much revenue and profit they make but middle and upper management suck it all up leaving scraps for the workers who made it for them.
