Everything else. imaginable.
Salary is TERRIBLE. Way below average for this industry, and for the amount of work and stress this job requires
Management across the whole company from the branch level to the top is an unmitigated disaster. Management is pretty much all 60+ and absolutely opposed to any sort of change, but yet they wonder why they have no new talent working in the company. I took the sales trainee position fresh out of college, and the "trainee" part of the description was an absolute joke. The only thing that resembles "training" is them sitting you in front of a computer on Graybar Pathways for hours on in watching horribly animated training videos probably circa 2005. After you finish your "training" you are then cast into a CSR desk with no direction or instructions whatsoever and expected to preform. Whenever a mistake was made (and there were a lot due to learning the functions of the job and SAP with little to no help) my manager would tear into and belittle me (or another unfortunate employee that made a mistake) in the middle of the office in front of the whole branch.
Also the overall maintenance and condition of the building I was in was absolutely appealing. Building was infested with roaches and rodents which would quite often die in the ceiling or walls and smell up the branch, even to the point were customers that came to the counter would notice it and complain about it.
Tobacco use in the workplace was prevalent and employees would leave dip spitters on there desk and they would sit there for weeks on end.
Lastly, stock was lackluster and did not accurately represent our market, and the logistics of the company are super inefficient. Many items that were sold at our branch would never be stocked and would have to be pulled from distant zones or branches. However, the company would dump money into stock that would never sell and fill up valuable warehouse space.
