DGI Supply

Disorganized company
The left hand does not know what the right hand is doing or that there is a left hand.
The top VP’s at DGI turn over every year or so and since it is a family run company, one bad VP after another and goes from bad to worst.
Within 3 years the company will be sold or will go out of business as they are in an uncontrollable tailspin due to extremely poor management.
Used to have 350+ sales personal throughout the US and now down to fewer than 55. Used to have close to 80+ locations now down to 24 of which many are CSR’s working from their home. My region had 24 sales personal a few years back and now has 10. Stay away from this company as there are far better choices out there with a promising future.
My director of sales/sales manager is an outstanding manager, yet he has no say in any matter and over ruled on all matters.

My typical day gives me the opportunity to interact with multiple departments. It is always interesting and provides new challenges each day. Having the opportunity to learn new  things  is part of what keeps this job interesting. Whether it is about a new vendor partner, a new trick in the database to get around more efficiently, or interacting with account managers that bring a different perspective to what we do.  The direct management team that I report to is awesome. They provide guidance and also allow for the independence to problem solve.  They are family friendly and have always been supportive when an emergency has arisen and I can not put a price tag on the importance of that in my tenure with DoALL.  The hardest part of the job is trying to accomplish all there is to do in a day. The best part of the job is the diversity that each day brings.

Went in at 7:30 am and got off at 4:00 pm.  I would go to the office and check my email plus VM.  I went get the door when customers needed parts for their machines.  I also would count inventory and do UPS / FedEx.  I did the billing and invoices.  I learned a lot on the parts and what it took to run large machinery.  My manager was not very helpful to me or in doing a good job.  The workplace was clean but had no windows in the office or building.  Hardest part of my job was dealing with the office manager.  The most enjoyable part was all the nice people I got to know over the past 7 years and knowing that they all appreciated my help and dedication to the company.

What you will find at DGI is that in a typical day at work you will need to be flexible to cover many different directions that your job function can take you. You will get an opportunity to learn many different things about DGI and how the business is run, as long as you ask questions. Management will expect a fair day's work out of their employees, but in most cases there are not a lot of micro-managers. The workplace culture is quite good in that DGI for the most part hires people who are easy to get along with and communicate with. The hardest and in some cases best part of the job is the different directions you can be asked to take on a day-to-day basis. Due to that, you can learn many things about both your job function and the company in general.

In my position I face several different challenging scenarios each day.  The fact that I face these different challenges gives me great work experience within my department, many cross functional assignments,  allows me the opportunity to work with peers I normally don't work with daily and gives me the ability to showcase my skills to the leadership of this company.  The fact the company believes in employees by empowering them to make decisions on what is best for the company and its employees is one of many reasons why I enjoy working for DGI Supply.  In my tenure with DGI I have worked with a few different managers and each of them I have been very fortunate to learn from their current and previous work experience.

DGI Supply which is part of DoAll, should have just stayed in bandsaw manufacturing.  They know nothing about industrial tooling.   The competition (Fastenal, MSC) has the tooling in stock and ready to ship asap.  DGI has to find a location that has it and by the time it ships, you could have already gotten it from somewhere else.  DGI Supply likes to buy up small companies that they see as competition and then run them into the ground.  Senior Management then blames everyone else but themselves.

My experience from day one has been good.
Alot of long term Employees that are still going strong an happy.
Like many work places; Change always comes with ups and downs but the team is supportive of one another.
I enjoy being predominantly independent as a service tech when it comes to physical workload. 

 I have always been able to count on us all working together to find a solution when it comes to a customer or fire to put out...

I believe the future is only going to get better with the talent and experience we have and are expanding into.
Looking forward to the future and growing with this Company.


The company has the potential for good growth if it was better organized to give the customer a better ordering and quoting experience.  There are too many bottlenecks and non-communicative silos between company organizations at the corporate level.

Fellow staff members, local management and account managers are great people.

Good long term people to work with.  After building your territory the rule is to reduce the number of customers if you excel in making great increases in wages and earnings.  Then house accounts will absorb your customer base and telemarketing and internet based web site sales will be introduced to these customers to avoid paying commission type sales engineers in to each account. 50 accounts per salesman will then be the rule from then on with the goal of less servicing the customer with a personal visit by the territory rep.

It's a pretty cool company with some really good people. You regularly communicate with multiple different departments all over the country in other locations. And not really any micromanagement. The worst part is they don't really feel like the have the important details worked out and everyone company wide is just figuring it out as they go.
