Pros

Start early finish early No two days the same Diversity of grocery accounts to sell and merchandise CEO intelligent and motivating Good first job if you just got out of school

Cons

Fire top performers based on 1 negative complaint from one of 5 account channels National and District Management is a joke AI fascination that results in excessive amounts of KPI reports Give client accounts far too much say so in go-to-business strategy BPM's work remotely and don't get out into the field to see what Reps go through Just because someone excells in a sales role doesn't mean they are management material Unable to give each brand the attention they deserve because some accounts have 15 brands being serviced. Schedule conference calls 2-3 in the same day often Excessive wear and tear on personal vehicles Mileage reimbursement never increases with the cost of living Consistently top performers are let go for age or disability Company only cares about growth not employee workload or satisfaction No quality group health insurance because the company is too small. Juvenile rah rah sis boom bah on team calls. Managers lie to your face to further their personal and professional agendas

Pros

I don't know who needs to hear this, but only a fool will look for pros at this company after reading the reality below.

Cons

The work-life balance was a joke here. As a driver, I had no say in my schedule. It was terrible. My job was ridiculously stressful, and still, I never got any appreciation. It was horrible. Please stay away.
