Business Outlook

Pros

Since the company relaunched in September of last year we've been moving towards becoming the most innovative broad-line distributor in the industry. By this time 2013, we will have a completely new sales model in place making it impossible for anyone to compete with our level of service. I worked for Sysco for a decade and did very well. I am far happier and more productive at US Foods. At Sysco they will have their hands full trying to react to what's is coming up next year.

Cons

The biggest challenge is getting then whole company to embrace the change. Change scares some people. Even though to many of us it's obvious how these changes will make our jobs easier and more enjoyable, some will always cling to the way they've done things for many years.

Strong middle management, but upper management fails employees

Business Outlook

Pros

Great middle management Decent benefits Remote work options

Cons

Terrible upper management Money centric culture (even though they claim it's about people) Outsourcing jobs overseas Despite employee satisfaction surveys scoring management, perceived job security, and the direction of the company at 10-25%, upper management and execs make no effort to improve perception or even explain the reasons behind these concerns Mass layoffs constantly; unceremoniously firing people who have been working there for decades in favor of saving a few bucks
