Pros

Colleagues are talented, friendly, helpful. Flexible schedule.

Cons

Used to recommend Sysco because they take care of their most valuable resource, its people. But that changed. I now make less as an 8 year sales professional than I did as an inside sales rep when I started in 2016. I’ve grown sales dollars and pieces by double digit percentages, but your new system excludes me from making any bonus.

Culture, growth, good leadership, excellent training and preparation as well as ongoing education.

Matrix commission structure that can be hard to achieve. Low margin industry as a whole. Constant battle with competition.

Pros

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Cons

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
