Pros

Locations around the country are plentiful.

Cons

Management does not respect their employees. This starts from the top and filters down through the rant and file.

WESCO hasn't figured it all out yet, but has put action against the major challenges in the business.

WESCO Intl.- A great place to work

Pros

WESCO recognizes their strengths and weaknesses, and is working to improve upon both. The company is well established, with a distinguished reputation within the industries they serve. They are the largest electrical distributor in the country, and they have the assets (people and capital) to take a more powerful position. The leadership understands that their people are the backbone of the company, and treat them well to maintain high morale. All levels of management are willing to give up their time to talk to you. WESCO is exploring new markets, and is offering their people the opportunity to pursue personal interests that fit into a plan that allows the person and the company to grow. If you have a business case for a position that does not currently exist, WESCO is willing to create that position. The benefits (matching 401k, health, dental, vision) are great. There is a recent push to integrate a younger workforce into an older culture. This means fresh ideas are welcome and encouraged.

Cons

There is a well established workforce that is currently engrained in leadership roles. This presents a current downside, but a tremendous upside in the future.
