Thanks for leaving a review. We agree, our employees are friendly; they are great! We do understand communication can be a struggle and are always looking for ways to improve. With a company structured like ours with many locations and different departments working on their own things but also towards the same goals, it can be difficult to find time to come together sometimes. But we must always remember we are all members of the same team, One Graybar, and it's critical to always keep lines of communication open and work together. If you have any suggestions on how we can do better at this, please share them on the NEXT platform or the next Feedback Survey.

Pros

Employee owned so profits are shared with both employees AND employee stock holders

Cons

Graybar is trying to keep pace with the digital transformation of our industry, But, most senior leaders lack the experience needed to execute true digital change. As a result, the company has made several costly missteps. Graybar needs more outside senior talent with a proven track record of building and deploying customer‑facing digital solutions that both simplify the customer experience and reduce Graybar internal labor. Our current AI initiatives are unlikely to deliver meaningful results because our data is too inconsistent to support AI and other inititives. Without significant changes soon, Graybar’s long‑term outlook risks mirroring companies like Blockbuster, Borders Bookstores, Sears, and JCPenney—businesses that failed to adapt when customers shifted to online purchasing instead of relying solely on brick‑and‑mortar service or phone/fax to place orders.
