Pros

The benefits are VERY good - there's a wide range of options to choose from. There is the potential to be a fully Remote employee after 6 months. The training process is VERY thorough. There is an abundance of job aides and assistance available to help guide the employee to perform the job successfully and serve the customer well; one is always well supported to make the best decision for both Grainger and the employee.

Cons

The pay scale for this position is VERY LOW and incongruent to the amount of work/energy/time/knowledge/skills needed to perform well at this job. This is the most challenging/difficult job I have ever had and yet it is the lowest salary I have ever received. I have never felt so undervalued as an employee as I do here in this role.

Pros

Benefits are decent and reasonably priced. They offer a 401k match, BCBS insurance, FSA, HSA, dental, vision, life insurance, and accidental D&D coverage. They also do a 3‑to‑1 match for donations to non‑religious 501(c) organizations. There’s a big emphasis on volunteering, with plenty of opportunities to get involved. The building itself is beautiful, with a free on‑site gym, a coffee shop, real trees in the atrium, a waterfall, and a large cafeteria (though the food can vary). They’re also flexible about which days you come on‑site, depending on the team’s schedule. If I needed to switch a Monday for a Thursday, it was never an issue. My manager was also supportive of remote work on days when the weather made commuting difficult.

Cons

Admins do not get an annual bonus. They're really strict on Overtime, really weird about worrying about mini costs. Like they'll spend 50k on a week-long training but freak out if people want to rent a car while being in town. Can't buy lunch for this 3 hour meeting to cut costs, but we'll drop 10k on this other thing. It's also so unfair that some people get to work remotely and others are forced to come in 3 times a week, for the exact same roles. Every meeting is basically online, so it's just silly and a power trip.
