      Work life balance
      Pay (above average but less than O&G)
      Benefits are average but the Sysco perks make them awesome.

      Growth opportunities are endless
      Free FOOD!!! Everyday free fruit thought the buildings on food testing employees can take samples home
      Onsite Gym
      Cafeteria and Coffee shop is like eating out at restaurant

      Pros

      Working for the biggest food distributor In the world has it's benefits. Great resources and great first sales job in terms of the amount of quality training you recieve. Sysco is also very forward thinking so things are always changing to better adapt to the market and help customers.

      Cons

      Things are always changing that It really is up to local management to ensure successful rollouts of new programs etc. Sometimes that doesn't happen, although I dont think because of lack of effort.
