GFS Cornerstone Values lost at the divisional level, but still a better company than Sysco and Us Food Service

Customer development specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Private family owned company which means no greedy stockholders to answer to. Great profit sharing/401K program. Excellent benefits, including tuition reimbursement, adoption assistance, employee discounts, etc. Christian company. Financial rewards for performance.

Cons

Cornerstone values and culture lost at the divisional level. Middle management are a bunch of "yes men" that don't support the people that report to them. Long hours, week nights and Sunday work. More concerned about expense management and head count than sales building. Individual departments are more concerned with personal success than the success of the entire team. Most of the strong leaders have left the company and have been replaced by puppets.

Used to be good but continues to decline in the corporate office

Information services

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good insurance, vacation time, and outstanding co-workers.

Cons

Staff is overworked and raises are far and in between. GFS continues to put more load on employees yet refuses to add staff. They continue to tell employees to look for ways to save money even though staff has done everything they can. Used to be very family values based however now it seems to be nothing more then a sign on the wall. Staff has to purposely let things fall apart in order to get the CIO's attention. GFS has a bonus program however the objective that are set around making the bonus are unrealistic and not achievable.

Business Outlook

Pros

GFS is a great company to work for. They actually listen to their employees which is something I have never experienced in retail. You can earn a lot of bonuses and gift cards through sales competitions through out the year. It's not just for management, it's for the entire store. It's great incentive to work harder and be rewarded for your efforts.

Cons

The pay is not that great but that's retail for you. It would be nice to get more raises more often, but every 6 months isn't that terrible.
