Pros

Not much can say on the positive side. Once QXO acquired Beacon Building Products.

Cons

Prior to the acquisition by QXO of Beacon Building Products. Always felt a sense of belonging and that under our former CEO's guidance we had a solid direction and foundation of steady growth. The "Hostile" takeover in April has change that dynamic. We are no longer comfortable, and everyone that I deal with are all actively looking for new opportunities. It can be stated well we are growing and moving forward. Have seen since April two rounds of "Reorganizational Layoffs" of key members of the organization. It's terrifying. Brad maybe trying to grown the organization and turn it into a powerhouse. But do not see the positive results on the People Side. Really thought was going to spend my career with the organization. Now it's time to leave and I'm not alone. So, if your looking for opportunities within QXO. Be very cautious and when interviewing at at Branch level or Corporate would recommend discussing recent layoffs and long term opportunities. Now we are in a "Bidding" war for a drywall company. Heaven help those folks. Ya the investors may reap short term rewards but for a long-term growth. Not seeing it.

Pros

Exploring new places while driving.

Cons

If you work here, expect the manager to overwork you like a slave with absolutely no regard for your personal time or what time you get off, even if it's late at night. They consistently send a single employee out to handle massive deliveries that clearly require multiple people. Management doesn't care about your home life or your physical well being they just want the job done at your expense. I do not recommend working here.
