Pros

Shealy Electrical is now a division of Border States and the company is now part of the 8th largest Employee Owned (ESOP) electrical distributor companies in the U.S. By being a part of a larger company, there seems to be more career opportunity for those wishing to advance or seek new roles within the company. All employees are owners in the company.

Cons

Not applicable for the moment.

Pros

Decent pay. Steady work. Lots of support.

Cons

Just a place to work. If you want to slide into a position that you can just cruise without any challenge, then this is the place for you.

ESOP. Master distributor for Rockwell Automation (sole)

Cons

Poor middle management. Have stool pigeons reporting information to them and they do not investigate but take as gospel
