Kyle Marshall


Grainger is a great place to work. It’s a company that cares for and satisfies its internal and external customers. It is rare to have a company that is customer focused and employee friendly. I enjoy having the opportunity to make significant contributions, learn new things and develop additional skills. Whenever a company has good values, a strategic approach to developing its employees and delivers an exceptional value proposition for customers...it is an excellent place to be!

Grainger is a great place to work because of the strong leaders I have had the opportunity to work with. They demonstrate a genuine interest in a team's well being and lead with conviction and sincerity. Another reason I enjoy being a part of the Grainger team is because of the great benefits! Benefits like a profit sharing plan, stock purchase program, health and dental benefits, and educational assistance. I graduated March of 2002 from DePaul University with a B.S. in Business Management thanks to my manager’s encouragement and the company's educational assistance program!

What I have appreciated most about Grainger in my 23 years with the company is the high degree of ethics and integrity in which the organization conducts its business. No matter how challenging the business environment, Grainger has consistently shown a high degree of respect for its customers, suppliers, and employees. I believe this is one of the key reasons why we continue to be the market leader in our industry.

In June 2005, I will celebrate 19 years at Grainger. I came to the company right out of college and have never felt the need to look elsewhere because Grainger continually offers me new challenges and career options. I have gained experience in a variety of areas throughout the company. I started as a trainee in New Jersey and wore many hats at a branch, from cleaning the facility to managing warehouse operations and supplier relationships. Most recently, I moved from Grainger's online channel to work on the Market Planning team.

As long as I find opportunities to develop my skills and add value to the company, I am here to stay.
