Pros

The benefits are decent and it’s a very large company with a wide variety of career options.

Cons

Senior leadership is new and driving the company into the ground. Supply Chain leadership has a good plan to improve upon deficiencies but the technology team can’t keep up and the finance team is driving a disconnected and shortsighted agenda. New HR leaders seem insincere and the HR team is almost ENTIRELY new. The people who actually know how to get things done are being pushed out of the department. Sysco is in trouble if they don’t get it together!

Pros

flexible schedule, clear pay structure, training was outstanding, constant evolution of market.

Cons

A bit behind the curve in technology. very dishonest middle management, cut throat, if you have a poor middle manager, you have no access to assistance, retaliatory environment. A lot of games played if you are not looking....like trying to take advantage of new guys ....always. Each OpCo is their own. So my experience could be very different than another. If I had received 1/4 of what I promised I would not be taking the time. They handled COVID horribly. Let 30 percent of the entire corporation go and did not allow sales force to work remotely. If you ever make it to a meeting.... notice the number of new hires vs the number of retirees. That will be a questions I ask all potential employees going forward
