Pros

Good environment to to learn from and get a lot of knowledge about running a business. You can dabble in culinary, catering, marketing as well as all aspects of admin from payroll to AR/AP.

Cons

You have to be motivated to and a self starter to succeed. You spend a great deal of time on your own and no matter what they tell you a lot of time with reports.

Pros

Good Pay, Comapny Car or Car allowance, gas card, not micro managed, other managers good to work with, competitive, good learning experience.

Cons

Work-Life balance terrible conference call at 7am and you wont leave work til 6-7pm sometimes 8-9pm, short staff for drivers often making you have to run the route, customer issues because 4-5 Price increases a Year. Very unethical trying to force a customer to take that many price increases in a year. Route-men are union and they come back after you fire them several times. Route-men only listens to the union. Your Bonuses are extremely difficult to hit because of price increase and route-men doing what ever they feel like doing, you dont control majority of your bonus. Sometimes your running a route for over 15 hours in 95 degrees with no air. Only the day of the Holiday you get off. You must work around the holiday. For example you would get christmas day off but thats it you must come into work the day before and after to be paid. Same sale contest every year. Conference calls EVERY MORNING 7am and I mean EVERY!
