Pros

It mainly depends on where you get hired on. Some places have a great culture and leadership.

Cons

Where to start, 4 years had 2 pay cuts and 2 promotions that do not add up to what I originally signed on to Ferguson. No cost of living adjustments. No raise, or less than $1 raises every year. There is very little training and development opportunities unless you are willing to move or as I said in the pros above, getting into a good location/logon. They ARE NOT all the same. Turn over rate is Very High, due to incompetent or nonexistent leadership, inability to take care of core or veteran employees and leadership so everybody leaves the company or logon.

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

None, I would say remote work but it’s very toxic.

Cons

Poor leadership (manager and director), poor communication, poor training, unrealistic m expectations, micromanagement, no SOPs, lack of structure, FLSA violations, no upfront disclosure of what role is, stingy management. People outside of HR are great. In HR? They’re happy to lay people off and talk about it so casually during meetings. Think “it’s our yearly layoffs” and joking about catching people “slipping”. No opportunities for growth despite saying there was during interviews. Interview and reality are worlds apart. No diversity. Severe control issues. No new people have been hired in over 3 years yet multiple people have left so people are burnout. One person handles all of one process alone and management thinks that’s ok. For reference the same process takes 10-11 associates in the same sized org. I can go on. Stay away!!!
