W. L. Petrey Wholesale Co. Inc.

Organization skills were very necessary and increased as a result of working here. There was always pricing and organizing to do. I was responsible for Zippo lighters and Smith & Wesson knives in a room under lock and key. The Zippos were the most expensive inventory sold by the entire company. I was responsible for organizing them, pulling orders from the drivers and shipping them out as well as ordering tens of thousands of dollars worth bi-monthly.

My first 20 years with Petrey were rewarding & for the most part enjoyable. Petrey is a family owned business & the owners are wonderful.
Now we have personnel leading the sales force who are just numbers people. They have little sales experience & do not have a clue about the daily field operations. National competition in our field has come in & I feel like we just can not compete. I have tried to address this with upper management & they do not seem to realize what is going on. I`m tired of fighting this.

This is an awful place to work. They do not care about their employees. Job security is always undefined. Someone is always trying to out step you or get you fired. Jealous employees are always worried about what other people make and what they can do to take your job and make what you make. The GM and Directors are stealing this company blind, I feel bad for the owners that know nothing about their people they have in charge are robbing them and treating employees like garbage.

Great environment a lot of great workers. I will count all merchandise coming in and going out for delivery drivers. Maintain the quality and quality of the product. Maintain the amount on hand to make sure there was enough for each store. Build up a palette for each driver coming in. Make an equal amount of items for the drivers. I was in control of count of the entire inventory in the warehouse


Petrey Wholesale was a great company to work for. They offered good pay with commission. They also furnished a company vehicle and an expense account. It was the best job I ever had and miss it very much. I worked there for almost 6 years.

I loved working at Petrey Wholesale. They have a great group of employees and they went above and beyond to make me feel welcomed. They would assist on any project that I needed help with.

everything is based on how fast you do your job. the no uniform policy is great. they offer benefits and certain holidays you cant get the opportunity to be off. the every week pay was great but they aren't very professional when it comes down to company rules and on the job injuries.

Micro-management at it's worst. Extremely heavy work load with not much time to complete your daily tasks. Too many mangers telling you what to do and not on the same page.

Horrible management to deal with especially with deliveries they charge truck drivers under the table money to unload their deliveries so basically whatever company has already paid for unloading your getting double charged 

The company has been around for over 100 years and I had a good run. It was just not meant for me to continue on with their growth.
