State Electric Supply Co.

It's very sales oriented. Sales people and management get a ton of perks and bonuses and well as pay increases. Lower level (hourly) employee's get no incentives, bonuses, or perks. Lower level employee's very rarely get raises. They can go several or even many years without any pay increase what so ever. The quality of Management depends on the branch where one works; some good, some bad, some great. The culture depends on the branch where one works, again; some good, some bad, some great. There is a serious lack of accountability company wide. The hardest part of the job is people that constantly go above and beyond the call of duty get to observe others spending a large part of their day not doing their job. The most enjoyable part of the job is being able to listen to any type of music I want while I work. I'm fortunate to be at a branch with not only a good manager, but a great person for manager.

no sense of direction, they could care less about their employees, it doesn't matter how many years of experience you have or how many years you have dedicated to working for them or how knowledgeable you are, you will be let go on a whim. they lay off employees and with out missing a beat go out and buy new $30k or $40k company vehicles for someone for whom a new position name was made up and give them a job just because they are related to the owners. Horrible work environment, management is a joke, employees constantly call in sick leaving a large gap in the coverage of deliveries, in the end the customers are the one suffering, everyone seems to forget the reason we are there is for the customers and they sign our checks.

My direct manager did not appreciate the work that I did and never gave me credit for anything or a raise when asked multiple times it was very depressing working here because I was alone most of the time and when I took the time Occupy myself like being on my phone when there’s nothing to do it’s like I had to be pushing a broom the whole time I was there I always felt like I had a snitch always around me aka my  supervisor I worked in the wire warehouse  there’s two separate managers the General manager of the store was very understandable and pleasant to speak to and allowed the front desk Associates to enjoy the perks of TV coffee donuts and any other vendors that come in and give them stuff but not the wire manager

A typical day at work was busy, but fun because there was a lot of good people to work with. I was able to learn some different aspects of the business such as sales and purchasing. The quality of management depended on which branch an individual worked at. Overall they have good management. The work place culture was very good, again it varied depending on the branch, but good over all. The hardest part of the job was dealing with last minute changes to scheduling based on customer needs. It was a very fluid schedule which made me have to make difficult decisions on prioritizing customers and truck routes. The most enjoyable part of the job was the people. The employees and management at my branch were awesome and we had some great customers to work with as well.

Most work days start loading trucks in which I am responsible for coordinating the best routing. I would learn many things each day such as where different route connect which would help in routing drivers to maximize profit. I work with a great bunch of people that care for each other. The hardest part of my job is figuring out how to keep all customers deliveries on schedule while maximizing profit. I enjoy every part of my job except for not having the ability to have a say in who is a good fit for my team. I am responsible for a fleet of 6 delivery trucks, 2 Powered industrial Trucks, a team of 11 employees, and the logistics of 3 branch's.

Do not work here unless your last name is Spoor or Martin. I've never worked somewhere where "the good ole boys club" runs the entire company. If you are lucky enough to get into their "inner circle" then you'll be just fine. But good luck getting into it. The pay is terrible for the amount of work you are expected to do. There is little to no communication company wide and branches operate as their own entity. It's honestly sad because this company has so much potential to be a wonderful place to work. But it's not. 

The company is full of advancement, mostly this is based off of sales, or how long you have worked there, it is a nice place to work if you are okay with making a decent living but if you want money quick you may want to look other palces
Hopefully people are buying stuff from you

Not a bad place to work if you like being inside and getting off at the same time everyday (8-5) 

Good people and environment

The atmosphere was extremely warm and welcoming. The people were friendly, like a family group that is happy to stretch to accommodate one more member. The e-commerce team is a tightly knit group who work well together and are dedicated to developing and maintaining a strong online presence for the business. I loved working there and was sorry to leave it. Most of the people I met there had been working there for many years and were still happy to be there, which I feel says a lot about the environment.

Good place to work for but raises usually don't happen. Front office is a little shady at times like most places otherwise you get treated fair. Hard to make it a career do to not making a whole lot of money. Pretty good, laid back job overall. I pretty much enjoyed my time there.

Ran all phases of the electrical supply business, which included inside sales, counter sales, answering phones, bid quoting, assisting outside salesman, help stock and manage warehouse.  Manager was great, let me work freely and learn all phases of the electrical business.  Co-worker were great!  Hardest part of the job was driving an hour to an hour and a half each way for over 4 years.  Most enjoyable was helping our customers.
