      Pros

      Good benefits, awesome vacation time, fitness center, clinic is amazing!

      Cons

      It is hard to get time off when you want it, you continuously feel like you're doing a lot of work and moving nowhere, management will take credit for your work and never compensate you for it, management does not like to communicate and when they do it is cryptic and condescending.

      Unsettling; in a time of rough "times" the company chose to shift many jobs to their overseas business unit.

      Pros

      The company has great benefits and one of the best retirement funds through their company sponsored profit sharing trust. The employees do not contribute any money into their retirement, the company provides a % of earnings for each employee.

      Cons

      The company's loyalty has shifted from being a company that cared about their people to a company that cares more about their profits. They have been cutting jobs, shifting roles to Panama and other overseas entities and expecting more from less head count as well as expecting high profits. There is no more company loyalty from the company or its people. Very sad because Grainger use to be a company people would begin and end their careers with 35+ years; now, most people leave within 5.
