Grainger reviews

Pay and benefits are good.

It is a very "old school" company. They look only at how you politick. In fact, that is explicitly what shows up in your reviews. They do not look at measurable results at all. It's upside-down. Your boss will be someone who is terrible at the work but hangs out with the right people and just implements whatever other people tell them to. Creative thinking is punished. If you just want to make some money and will keep quiet about anything constructive, you'll be fine here. If you care about doing good work, look elsewhere. If you aren't in a clique, forget about advancement.

Management makes working for a great company a bad place to be.

Pay, insurance, and benefits.

Upper management makes working for a great company a discouraging place to be. Company policy only applies to thoes at management discretion. If you go to work to do your job and fill in where needed you'll still never do enough for some managers satisfaction. Basically if they like you, they like you and if they don't, they don't.

I prepared for the interview by showing up on time.

The only con that I have working for Grainger is the home work life balance. Working 10hr shifts dose not bring balance. The extra day off is nice but, it doesn't help me through the rest of the week.

The pros for me is that we all get weekends and holidays off!! they also have a wonderful benefits program that wont break the bank. Graingers 401k program also helped me out considering i was never able to afford to have one and they made it possible.

defiantly the 401k program

Profit sharing, benefits, co workers

Most managers do not know the processes or how to do the job and are completely replaceable

Profit sharing, morning shift

Culture, core values, benefits, employee investment and industry.

Business practices, training, and ethics gaps within midlevel and senior management in rural offices.

17 PTO days beginning day one.
