Anheuser-Busch InBev reviews

The route you get decides how difficult it will be to hit your goals You have to schedule all vacation in 1 week blocks, at the beginning of every year. You are NOT guaranteed to get the dates requested off and those vacation dates are then set in stone. Promotions are based on qualifications and performance maybe 10-30% of the time. The majority of promotions happen because managers want to get ineffective employees out of their current roles leading to "failing upwards" being a consistent trend. Management training program takes kids that are inexperienced and has them managing sales staff. They provide no leadership and more often than not have the same qualifications as standard employees. These employees are not held accountable for poor work performance. It's not really a sales role. As a Sales Representative, you will be doing about 10-20% of your time doing actually sales related work, 80% or more will be spent doing inventory, and supply chain management, which is fine but management acts like everyone has ample selling time. Anheuser-Busch was bought by Inbev a few years back, every veteran employee there has consistently stated that things have steadily declined since the buyout and even during my time there, costs were only cut. All of the funding is going to the regional level and not the wholesalers. Consistently would be out of stock on products that were on the selling targets so literally impossible to sell, often times we had 1/4 the time to sell a product yet no targets adjustments would be made. You will start EARLY. Expect a start time of 5-6am and you won't be finished most days until 3 - 4:30pm however many times management will expect you to work later without compensation. Women in this industry have to go through harassment from retailers on a daily basis, Management is not consistent in their approach.

A lot of paperwork and wages are low.
