Pros

Great benefits, company has a good reputation in the market, and you have the potential to make a decent amount of money. They also have a very good work/life balance.

Cons

Base pay not competitive compared to similar positions at other companies, the department has become VERY metric focused, and a lot less laid back than it was two years ago. The company is also not good about promoting from within or rewarding consistent performance. Finally, the company has absolutely no culture. Their idea of culture is 10 people emailing "great job!" to everyone a day. The company is so far behind Amazon right now, I wouldn't be surprised if Amazon bought them out in the next 5 years.

Pros

Having worked for several other companies throughout my career, I can honestly say that Grainger provides the best employee training and development I've experienced. The amount of time, effort, and resources they invest in helping employees succeed exceeds every other company I've worked for combined. Grainger is committed to making sure everyone has the same opportunities to learn, grow, and advance. The company provides the tools, training, and support needed to build a successful career. The opportunities are there for everyone—you just need to ask questions, take initiative, and seek them out. Managers and teammates are supportive, and the overall culture encourages continuous learning and personal growth. In addition to the excellent training, Grainger offers a positive work environment, strong benefits, and a culture built on teamwork, safety, and customer service.

Cons

As with any large organization, some processes can take time due to multiple levels of approval. Workloads can also be demanding during busy periods, but the support from coworkers and leadership helps make those times manageable.
