Grainger Software Engineer reviews

- Not enough time off, you only get 6 holidays and not much PTO, because you have to 'keep the world working'. Kind of silly, but you can get more if you stay longer. - Many recent (political) restructures of teams/leadership in GTG. Seems like every year there's a massive restructuring up top. Not sure why this happens so often. - Developer turnover has been increasing as of recently, this could be because the SWE market is getting better or because of the leadership changes. - Bonuses have been <100% for a couple years now, and the company no longer does profit-sharing despite fantastic growth across the board - Leadership is comprised of many people from a few different companies. Not a ton of variance, it seems like when we get one new higher-up, that person brings a lot of people from their old company, which is not great for diversity of thought within leadership.

The company is old and struggling to modernize, management is capable but doesn't seem to have much of a plan other than "number go up", promotions are essentially non-existant, and internal surveys show the morale decreasing.
