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

They have decent benefits, paid travel for training, opportunity to move around the country.

Cons

Entry level pay is lacking. Definitely a boys club. "Locker Room Talk" was common and at the branch I worked, they were very concerned with accepting and expecting you to accept the industry's attitudes concerning women, instead of changing it. I left due to it, but there are also many long term employees.

However, we do not tolerate any unfair, sexist, or inappropriate behavior at our company.
