Pros

Some really great individuals/leaders in the field. White Cap is able to recruit top talent, just can’t keep them there due to cultural/leadership issues.

Cons

Toxic work environment. I strongly suggest not working here. There are equity issues, high turnover rates, toxic leadership, and no work/life balance. Better options out there, keep looking!

Pros

Before the M&A, people were the best thing about working here. Teams were closenit and operated like a family. You did whatever you could to make things happen for your team members. The commaradarie and support between members was unmatched.

Cons

This was a great place to work. Recently, however, with all the Mergers & Acquisitions some of the newly acquired managers (from different companies) do not embody the White Cap culture that made it a great place to work. Some of these managers only care about their own people--from the company(ies) they came from--to the point of it being super clickish. If you're not one of them, good luck getting assigned to projects with visibility beause, of course, that's reservered for their team members only. Upper management really needs to force the newly acquired managers to stop operating as their former entity and get with the White Cap program or else. If you want to get trained, good luck with that. The most you get will be a LinkedIn Learning subscripition--unless you look a certain way. Then, you'll get to go to conferences and whatever training you want.

Pros

Working with great people liked my direct managers and coworkers.

Cons

Very high turnover, no stability in branch employees No stability in upper management. Clear lack of direction in the company No one was ever held accountable Very hard to get help from product specialist Not enough inside sales people so you had to do most of your own orders even when out on the road The training provided in Birmingham did not apply what so ever in my region and was truly a waste of time. Senior account managers would not help or give you advice what so ever. No stock of any popular product in branches Huge inventory problems Very misleading in the interview process about the job and responsibilities
