Pros

Grainger is a well rounded company that is constantly evolving to stay ahead of the curve. I have been with the company for over six years, have been in two different positions and have had four managers. My experience has been nothing but a success. They know that if your a success then they are a success, so they give you all the tools you need to get the job done. The base pay, commission and benefits are fare and competitive.

Cons

A company this size is infiltrated by the government. In order to stay in good standing with all of the governmental regulations like EPA, OSHA, and the multiple civil movements Grainger is straying further to the secular world view and away from the biblical world view.

Pros

Benefits are decent and reasonably priced. They offer a 401k match, BCBS insurance, FSA, HSA, dental, vision, life insurance, and accidental D&D coverage. They also do a 3‑to‑1 match for donations to non‑religious 501(c) organizations. There’s a big emphasis on volunteering, with plenty of opportunities to get involved. The building itself is beautiful, with a free on‑site gym, a coffee shop, real trees in the atrium, a waterfall, and a large cafeteria (though the food can vary). They’re also flexible about which days you come on‑site, depending on the team’s schedule. If I needed to switch a Monday for a Thursday, it was never an issue. My manager was also supportive of remote work on days when the weather made commuting difficult.

Cons

Admins do not get an annual bonus. They're really strict on Overtime, really weird about worrying about mini costs. Like they'll spend 50k on a week-long training but freak out if people want to rent a car while being in town. Can't buy lunch for this 3 hour meeting to cut costs, but we'll drop 10k on this other thing. It's also so unfair that some people get to work remotely and others are forced to come in 3 times a week, for the exact same roles. Every meeting is basically online, so it's just silly and a power trip.
