Pros

Good pay Decent benefits and stock options plan Great coworkers, very helpful and knowledgeable

Cons

Operations team is rude, and unprofessional, most drivers are untrained and clueless, they leave products at customers without giving them a chance to look for items and products are always missing and damaged. We are then fighting with operations management team to get rightful credit for our customers, and credits are mostly rejected, and it damages the relationship with customers and they lose trust in us. Senior leadership do not care and they simply disregard this issue that has been happening for almost two years. Senior leadership just sits behind their desks all day and don’t care what’s actually happening on the street and why we are constantly losing cases to competition because of our poor service level. Orders are being returned at a high rate, and lots of products are constantly missing from deliveries, which is very sad for a company of this size. There’s no work life balance, impossible to take a day off and vacation, it is literally a 7 day job now with Saturday delivery.

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.
