Vantaggi

You can't beat the retirement package. Full pension, profit sharing, and privately traded stock options. Profit sharing is usually over 10% and the stock dividends are also over 10% a year. It's a pretty relaxed place to work (at least my branch is). Huge company with tons of locations. If you want to move you can go pretty much anywhere in the US. They are pretty good about promoting from within.

Svantaggi

The fact that the benefits are good keeps people around so it's hard to move up sometimes unless you want to move to different cities a lot. Management definitely focuses primarily on their sales staff when it comes to investing in them and training. It's hard as a low level employee like a driver or material handler to learn things so that you're more likely to move up the chain.

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.
