      Pros

      Sysco provides you the opportunity to market some great food products to any independently owned operator in your territory. You can take some samples home to get feedback from your friends or family.

      Cons

      Working six days a week in the gross profit game is a nightmare. The largest foodservice company in North America still thinks you can get the job done with a yellow legal pad and a pager. My company issued laptop was one of the perks. It was AWESOME back in '95. Paying all my own expenses such as gas, vehicle maintenance, cell phone bill, was something I would have thought a big company would pick up. It seemed upper management was just trying to earn their 'executive vp' of whatever and then move to Houston. Mid level management just liked to see you struggle while they play golf and talk about how they used to do it back in the day.

        Pros

        Flexible schedule Great pay and benefits Bonus is generous and attainable Treated like family Excellent work-life balance

        Cons

        Basically work everyday, however, on weekends and holidays you work from wherever you are- just have to be accessible to your customers at all times. You can have a colleague cover you when you can’t be available. It’s still a man’s world- most upper management/ DSM’s are men and women are rarely promoted to this position. Although diversity is a company focus, there are very few people of color working in this position.

        Your feedback is greatly appreciated! Sysco works to make sure each associate is appropriately rewarded for their hard work and dedication to our company. Sysco values you and your efforts to help us fulfill our Vision to be our customer’s most valued and trusted business partner!

      Hello, does anyone know of Susan Riedel because she is my hiring manager and said I received the position although has not responded in a day. Is she employed at this company or is this a job scam?
