Pros
Awesome benefits and compensation. Great product and fantastic distribution capabilities. Service solutions are bar none the best in the industry.
Cons
Grainger used to be "the place to work". Based on what I've heard, they are on a huge minority hiring spree internally and externally. Candidates are selected based on race and leadership is being stacked with minority leaders? Promotions and hires are no longer based on the quality of the applicant vs. some sort of racial quota? I'm curious to know if the EEOC or labor groups or a recent lawsuit have driven this action? It's a shame that this is the new Grainger. The leadership should be ashamed of itself and stop the nonsense!
