Pros

The company is a product of multiple acquisitions and as a result has very diverse culture. You get to work with wonderful people from different parts of the country. If you have set your mind to achieve something don't let early baffles discourage you, it's all part of learning process. If you are here just for a paycheck - get a job in one of the shared centers. If you are here for a career - start at the branch.

Cons

Ferguson has somewhat new corporate structure in the form of matrix with many functions taken from the branch level and moved to centralized locations. Yes, this saved some money but changed mentality from "we're all in the same boat" to "I got to cover my own a$$". Working 50hrs/week is definitely a con and a good way to save on labor costs.

Pros

Huge office space and freedom to work independently in break rooms instead of being stuck at a desk. They have many opportunities for growth but the high paying roles are salaried and are paid once a month instead of biweekly. Overall a great company with good benefits

Cons

Lower pay than normal for the work

Pros

Stable company with strong financial backing and deep pockets. Solid commission opportunities once you build a strong client base. Certain regions and business groups are willing to invest in and support business growth.

Cons

Some regions are under constant pressure to cut costs, making it increasingly difficult to service customers effectively and grow the business. Management is often absent and lacks understanding of the day-to-day realities of running such a lean operation. Overall talent quality has been declining, and the management compensation and bonus structure frequently drives irrational decision-making.
