Pluspunten

It has been helpful to my career in allowing me to gain work experience and build a network within my career field. People with long tenure with the company have a wealth of knowledge that can be beneficial to someone just starting out.

Minpunten

pay, non-existent work-life balance, "good old boys" network - promotions given not by how you perform but who you know

Pluspunten

Employee owned so profits are shared with both employees AND employee stock holders

Minpunten

Graybar is trying to keep pace with the digital transformation of our industry, But, most senior leaders lack the experience needed to execute true digital change. As a result, the company has made several costly missteps. Graybar needs more outside senior talent with a proven track record of building and deploying customer‑facing digital solutions that both simplify the customer experience and reduce Graybar internal labor. Our current AI initiatives are unlikely to deliver meaningful results because our data is too inconsistent to support AI and other inititives. Without significant changes soon, Graybar’s long‑term outlook risks mirroring companies like Blockbuster, Borders Bookstores, Sears, and JCPenney—businesses that failed to adapt when customers shifted to online purchasing instead of relying solely on brick‑and‑mortar service or phone/fax to place orders.
