Pros

Pay is pretty good but they will get their money’s worth working you 60-70+ hours a week.

Cons

Extremely toxic culture, multiple corporate tenured senior level employees let go while I was there. Left folks keeping their heads down and not speaking up. No freebies like at other spirts companies No work/life balance Low 401k match

Pros

Pay scale is really good.

Cons

Working for a company where the directors and new CHRO are out of touch with the realities of the workplace are frustrating and demoralizing experience. Unfortunately, this is precisely the situation at Sazerac, where high level management seem to be living in a different world altogether. The CHRO and the HR directors at Sazerac often make decisions that leave employees scratching their heads. It's clear that they have little understanding of the day-to-day challenges faced by their staff. Their disconnect from reality results in unrealistic expectations and goals that are nearly impossible to achieve. Favoritism is a prevalent issue at Sazerac. Certain employees are treated with preferential treatment while others are left to fend for themselves. It's not uncommon to see promotions and opportunities go to those who are in the good graces of the CEO, CHRO, or Directors, rather than to those who have earned them through hard work and dedication. Managers, who are the backbone of any organization, are often subjected to unfair treatment by the directors. They are given little support, overloaded with unrealistic expectations, and criticized for factors beyond their control. This mistreatment creates a toxic atmosphere.

Pros

Great brands, great people in sales.

Cons

Toxic leadership, bully mentality. Refuse to take ownership or accountability for any problems. Culture used to encourage entrepreneurship and learning - now it is CYA at any cost. All sense of teamwork has been lost.
