Pros

Discounts at their marketplace

Cons

FreshDirect has got to be one of the worst places I’ve ever worked. It baffles me that a company that relies heavily on the delivery of their products, treat their transportation department like garbage. From the unsafe trucks to the unprofessional and disgruntled employees (management included), there isn’t much to like. There’s no support. It’s too negative. The drivers are treated and paid poorly. Everyone loves throwing each other under the bus. No sense of unity. No sense of direction. Metric system is ridiculous, redundant and useless. Poor routing system. Laughable benefits. No security. But to be fair, you can get a pack of ground beef for $2.00. Still not worth it.

Pros

What I loved about this job is getting full ownership over my part of the business, and I know a lot of people stick around because they feel a similar passion and ownership. Even though the company is 25 years old, there are still many areas where a much work is needed and therefore great opportunity for new people to come in and make big impact.

Cons

No flexibility for employees to work from home when needed, and terrible PTO package. The family leadership is not transparent, makes questionable business decisions.
