Senior Internal Auditor

"Anixter has a very unique culture as it has a diverse set of people from different age groups. The Internal Audit function, in particular, has individuals with a wide range of experiences from different industries. The team dynamic is fantastic, and everyone is willing to collaborate with one another. However; the structure of the department dictated by senior management is not ideal for a junior staff level associate to have proper career advancement."

"Everything is money-driven. Supervisors aren't hired because of their ability to lead, but rather because of the company timeline. No useful training to speak of. The tools you need to do your job are not easy to find."
