Just prove to management that you can be a "yes man" and you are in. You don't need any other talents, just be a "yes man."

First of all, you don't get lunch breaks and if you do take one and miss a phone call, you get written up.

The offices are cold and uncomfortable. You share offices with noisy people and it is difficult to get your work done as a result.

Management is terrible and offer no support. No respect at all from managers or sales people and the whole idea here is "get me mine and screw everyone else." They have no clue what it takes to get certain jobs done, they just want it NOW! Don't even think about questioning the authority either or they will make your life a living hell!  They truly believe that conflict is a way to keep you on your toes.

Benefits are good for a single person, but if you have a wife and kids, expect to pay as much as a house payment per month to get your medical and dental benefits for you and your family.

Turnover is also high here. They have pretty much wiped out their whole entire staff from a year ago and have new people on board, so with that in mind, job security is very low. Definitely keep your options open if you do go here. Most people who have left have all said that they did so because of management and decisions within the company. They all found better opportunities with the competition.

They also bait you in with a sweet deal but change it on you after they have you locked in, partly because no real contracts are signed so they feel that they can do what they want.

You don't get bonuses either. You have to have a list of goals to do if you want a bonus of any kind and they are not your goals that you wish to accomplish or have interest in, they are what the company demands that you do, so they are not optional by any means. It is pretty much designed in a way to not pay you a bonus because the goals that they set are at times unreachable.

This place is also typical of the old saying, "too many Chiefs and not enough Indians." If you know what that means, then you should know what I am talking about.

Do yourself a favor and run!

I applied twice to the position I was hired for. It took a few months between applications before I was asked to interview. I was hired on the spot during the interview, and I was given a decent offer for pay. Health insurance starts on your first day, so that’s a plus if you need insurance. The company paid 80% of my family’s insurance premiums each week. 401k contributions are matched up to 4%. Pay is comparable to other local driving positions in the area, but on the higher end of the spectrum for someone with my experience; I’m sure people with more experience would be paid a bit more. Working a 5 day work week and off on weekends, with an average of 50hrs a week (sometimes more, it’s just based on demand at the time). The people are friendly and help each other whenever needed. Everyone seems to get along and work together very well. The job is exactly what I expected as far as work requirements, but it’s much better than I expected overall. You’ll be working in the elements often, and driving in residential areas as well as rural areas. There’s good job security, but limited on advancement. You’re pretty much hired to do a job and that’s what you’ll be doing. Management is great, and not constantly breathing down your neck like some other companies do to drivers. Just do your job as expected and you won’t have any problems. There’s a good job culture and overall it’s a really good place to work in my opinion. I wouldn’t have left the company if there was a branch closer to where I moved.

If you're thinking about taking a position at Sprinkler Warehouse under SRS Distribution, I strongly advise you to think twice. A typical day at work involved constant redirection by management, endless meetings, and an overwhelming sense of being micromanaged without clear purpose. From this experience, I learned a great deal about navigating complex and chaotic workplace dynamics and the importance of clear, supportive leadership—which was unfortunately lacking here.

The management style was highly erratic, characterized by favoritism and a distinct lack of strategic direction. This contributed to a workplace culture that was more about individual survival than team collaboration or mutual growth. The hardest part of the job was trying to remain productive and innovative in an environment where feedback was rare unless it served to enforce a specific, often unexplained directive.

Ironically, the most enjoyable part of the job was developing marketing plans and campaigns—initially criticized by management, only to be fully implemented after I left. This at least offered some validation that my ideas had merit, even if they were not acknowledged at the time.

All in all, while the potential to grow exists due to the company's size, the current leadership structure severely limits true professional advancement and fails to foster a supportive environment. There are certainly better opportunities out there where your talents can be truly appreciated and where you can work under leadership that encourages and supports your professional development.

Typical day at the branch- main priority is clients coming in, make sure they are helped in a fast and friendly manor. Then, keep you eye on the orders coming in via email or CRM. Follow up on each job to make sure the clients are getting what they need when they need it. 
I learned about the roofing industry. From a back office aspect. Taking care of the installer and helping them gather the materials they needed to be successful.
Management is the same here as everywhere else.
Culture here will be decided by the people in charge. Both at the Branch and at the Corporate office. Anyone can have a mission statement and a set of values- but not everyone is interested in adhering to the mission or the values.
The hardest part of the job for me was building respect.
The most enjoyable part of the job was no weekends - after 25 years in retail it’s nice to spend time with my family on the weekend. I also enjoyed my most recent role as Digital Solution Specialist, traveling to my branches and providing transformative support and seeing how they would light up when they learned something new to make them more effective.

I used to really enjoy working here.
It's a decent company but management over the Asheville NC area was toxic and I was dealing with being intentionally underpaid the whole time I was there.
I heard constant complaints about how the regional manager would yell and curse at lower management for not doing things correctly.
Morale was horrible. Everyone was constantly stressed for different reasons. 
Whether it be because we couldn't get the personnel that we needed to get the job done or because management was incompetent or aggressive.
My direct manager cared more than any other manager I've worked for but was constantly battling people above him to try to get things done.
I gave several good years to this company and always went above and beyond to try to do a good job but as soon as they found out I was leaving to pursue a different line of work, I was completely disregarded. 
I exchanged goodbyes with all of my coworkers but the branch manager and regional manager wanted nothing to do with me, deleting me off of social media and not returning my calls.
No hurt feelings. I'm just glad to be out and working for better people. 
I suggest thinking twice before working for a branch in this area.



If you decide to accept a position with this company, make sure you get what is agreed upon in writing. Unless you have a relative or special friend to take care of you , you have to look out for yourself.
This used to be a good company to work for until recently when they decided to hand out pay cuts and layoffs and do away with commissions. Of course they have to pay for added management at the corporate level, so why not take it from the employees ? It is sad that this branch was closed, some of the people were like family. I wish the best for those who were not offered positions at other locations. As for those in upper management that made the decision to close our branch, I hope they invest some of the money that was saved by putting us out of a job, causing financial hardship for those with a single income and use it for a personality class.
As for the employees that are in their late 50's early 60's where do we go from here ?
To those considering employment at Kohl's - BE CAREFULL !!!!

Willoughby was new to Orlando when I worked for them. I was hired as a CSR but ended up doing many different tasks that were not part of my job description. My day to day consists of  placing orders, and scheduling truck deliveries. I had to count the warehouse inventory and place orders on supplies that were low. I checked the time cards in the ADP program to make sure the payroll was correct. Taking payments and delivering them to the bank was part of my job. Calling Roofing companies and trying to create new accounts was also part of my everyday job description. As well as filling out and sending the end of the day reports. On the other hand because I had to do so much for the company it taught me how to use my time wisely, improved my customer service skills and how to understand how a warehouse runs.The hardest part of the job were the long hours, but I did get to spend the time with a great group of people who worked very well as a team.

Worked my tail off for this company and it was never good enough.
Spent hours away from my family, traveling and working hard while my numbers were "never enough." They bring people in to get big new accounts, then just under a year they fire you due to "numbers."
They then proceed to take your accounts and make them house accounts. Was told on several occasions how "expensive" I was. 
Been through three TM's in two years? What is the common denominator here?? Company allows other TM's to steal accounts internally. Completely unethical. Very disappointing. 
It takes a good two years to build a great book of business in any sales industry. Management in Wentzville terrible. Manager only looking out for himself. I am a strong, hard worker. Took away my career for nothing.  I was fired without rhyme or reason, no prior written or verbal warnings.  Did not want branch to pay out any expenses, manager would sit in the dark to avoid paying high utility bill in branch.

20 Years I sat behind that desk.  I built many many relationships over the years which in some points really didn't matter when it came down to credit. I firmly believe working with the customer  To get back on their feet You gain a customer for life. Unfortunately upper management does not see it this way And constantly pushes the sales team to produce sales no matter what. Home/worklife balance was so out of whack it starts to wear you down.  After 20 years experience college degree, and two credit certifications, I was told I was not Qualified enough to continue and relocate to Texas after telling HR we were ready to pack up, leave the family behind and relocate.. I sold my home and downsized to a mobile home to invest in the company which would have been great had they allowed me to keep my investment within the company as some were allowed to do just that. 

 The way I see it if you're not part of their inner circle you're just another number to them.
