Acosta reviews

You will never, and I mean never, get a pay raise. No COLA or anything. No incentives worth mentioning, and if they do have a contest, and you are a ‘winner’, they will ‘lose’ results, and good luck collecting. This company is on the downside, and like others have said, ‘this is the company you work for until you can find something else’. Communication from the top down sucks. They will tell you something and even if they put it in email, if they change their minds and even admit a mistake, you’re the loser. The right hand seldom knows what the left hand is doing. They mail you boxes & boxes of promo stuff and expect you to keep it at your house and drag it around for long periods. Do you like working at Walmart? If so, you should work for Walmart; there are pay increases there and they start at about what Acosta pays (which will never increase) If you don’t like working at Walmart, you shouldn’t work for Acosta. Either way, you’re really a Walmart ‘employee’. You’ll just be in a worse position working for Acosta. Acosta has other clients than Walmart, but Walmart drives their ship. Young talent isn’t attracted to this company because they can’t pay enough. Older employees don’t budge because they can’t find other jobs. Company is stale and lackluster, trying to compete in a fast changing retail environment. They take company-wide surveys but never tell employees the results. There’s a lot of unhappy campers.

WORKLOAD is extreme - people are working 12-15hr days even over weekends Salaries are some of the lowest in the industry (30-40% lower) Company does not give salary or pay increases annually Company does not pay bonus Company does not spend on training for employees Almost impossible to move up/grow Company conducts employee surveys and nothing ever changes Terrible communication especially as relates to employees Company spends the money they do have acquiring other companies
