TESTIMONIALS
Grainger employees in their own words.
The thing I value most in my short career with Grainger is the emphasis put upon employee development by management. Many entry-level employees feel invisible at large companies during their first few years. Many of my college friends have already changed companies within their first year of employment because they didn't feel valued and therefore didn't recognize a career path that motivated them. From my experience at Grainger, that isn't the case here.
I feel that if I work hard and continue to grow as an employee, I'll be given levels of responsibility to match my ability. That doesn't seem to be the norm among companies as successful as Grainger.

Senior Planning Analyst
My journey at Grainger began two summers ago as a Marketing and Sales intern. I was very impressed by my manager's commitment to provide me with nothing less than a meaningful experience. As I became acquainted with the company's culture, initiatives, and objectives I found myself very happy and excited about the projects I worked on and the impact they would have on the business. I knew I had chosen the right company because everyday as I prepared to head home from work, I looked forward to coming in the next day; I looked forward to seeing my work drive positive results for the company. I wanted to provide Grainger's customer's with the exceptional service I received as an intern.
Now that I have been converted to a full-time employee, I am more appreciative of my summer experiences. They have equipped me with the right tools and skills necessary for me to add value to the business. I will continue to work hard to understand, practice, and provide results that demonstrate my support for what Grainger stands for and believes in.

Grainger is genuinely committed to creating a great place for its employees to work. Grainger not only offers an attractive benefits package, but most importantly, the company is dedicated to building a culture of learning and growth. You see it everyday in management's message and within our teams. Since I've worked for Grainger, I have noticed that our leadership team is constantly looking for innovative ways to demonstrate to its employees how much they are valued. Although Grainger is always looking for ways to improve, Grainger's commitment to its employees has not diminished. It is this unwavering commitment that makes me proud to be part of a great company like Grainger.

Prior to Grainger I was part of a family owned business. The customer was paramount to our livelihood, and therefore we were driven to satisfy the customer at every opportunity. The same culture exists at Grainger, and drove me to join the Company twenty years ago. I continue to be impressed with the caring culture and absolute passion for customer service. As employees we are provided many opportunities to make a difference, have a positive influence on the Company, all while providing valuable services to our customers. Employee development is a critical part of our success and continues to be at the core of our values. It is extremely rewarding to enjoy your work, enjoy the people you work with, and have a positive impact on the communities you reside in... that's what makes me proud to work for Grainger.
