Usage

貴社(きしゃ) is used exclusively in written communication. In spoken language, 御社(おんしゃ) is used instead. This distinction is important and commonly tested in job interview preparation.
Because きしゃ is a homophone of 汽車(きしゃ) (train) and 記者(きしゃ) (reporter), it is almost always used in writing where the kanji makes the meaning clear.
