Graybar was named by Forbes as one of America’s Best Large Employers for 2018.
“As an employee-owned company, we take great pride in creating a positive work environment where employees can grow and use their talents to contribute to our long-term success,” says Kathleen M. Mazzarella, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Graybar. “Our employees set Graybar apart, and our culture inspires a sense of teamwork as we deliver customer service and give back to the communities where we do business.”
Forbes works with research firm, Statista, to measure leading employers around the globe and determine which companies stand above the competition. To compile the list, Statista surveyed 30,000 Americans working for businesses with at least 1,000 employees. All the surveys were anonymous, allowing participants to openly share their opinions. The respondents were asked to rate, on a scale of zero to 10, how likely they would be to recommend their employer to others.
Graybar, a Fortune 500 corporation and an employee-owned company, distributes electrical, communications and data networking products, and specializes in related supply chain management and logistics services. Through its network of nearly 290 North American distribution facilities, it stocks and sells products from thousands of manufacturers, helping its customers power, network and secure their facilities.
