City Electric Supply Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I have been here for 4 years and done everything we spoke about in the beginning. Electrical contractors are very good customers and the city is a great place to work!"

"The company has just started to compile a web presence. I am part of the Data Content IT team which ensures the gathering of data for cost, price, suppliers, customers, etc. for placement on our web store. Projects will come hot and heavy. The priorities change on these projects by the hour so don't be surprised to get pulled off one thing that was almost complete to start on another project just to get pulled off that to work on something more pressing. This is good and makes the days fly by but it can be hard to finish things on their original timeline."

"I currently work for City Electric Supply as a member of the I.T. Help Desk. I support internal proprietary software for over 500 branches & servicing more than 5,000 employees in North America."

"I have been with City Electric Supply since August of 2008, and they have been a good company to work for. It is family owned, so they are in the best interest of their employees, and reward us for our efforts to push the company.However, their pay scale is the same across the country regardless of where you live, and it is not enough for some areas. I lived in Denver, Colorado and the cost of living there is reasonable, compared to California it is difficult to maintain a lifestyle. I would like to stay with the company, but the chances to move up are very slim due to the way they divide the regions throughout the country, and the number of people appointed to manage them doesn't leave a lot of room for advancement.I would recommend the company for someone that is looking for a way to learn how to run a business, and how to be an effective sales person that if wanted, can translate into another industry."
