Pros

This job will take you away from frontline foodservice. The co-workers made this job worth it. They are dedicated, hardworking and very good at what they do.

Cons

I used the word "job" in my write up of the Pros of working at Labatt, because that is exactly what Labatt is; a job, nothing more. They are not a valid longterm career opportunity for young adults looking to jumpstart their career and their lives. Just ask about employee turnover in your interview. Career advancement is nonexistent. If you are hired for a role, be prepared to work in that role for the rest of your employment with Labatt. They have many employees that are living proof of that. Management is extremely unprofessional and office morale suffers the consequences. Vacation time is structured as follows: 0-1 year: no vacation time 1-2 years: 5 days 2-9 years: 10 days 10+ years: 15 days No 401k until you have been there for a year and then they only offer a 2% match.

Pros

Best company in the industry and truly unique. Great culture and helps all new hires with the intent of making them successful long term. Labatt offers great benefits and the environment is built on teamwork. I’m one of the many that have been here for many years and have enjoyed being a contributor in more ways than one. If you want to work for a food distributor, there is no other choice but Labatt.

Cons

Zero.zero and I believe that says it all.

Pros

The pros are that they typically pay above average compared to the rest of the state/city. For my specific field at least. They do have a on staff medical site which is good as they can provide you with medical care for cheap and can even write you subscriptions. The people who work there are great, and everyone is kind and you can tell if they have stayed love their jobs.

Cons

The cons are...well the benefits. Besides the medical clinic, you only get 6 holiday days, and after 1 year, 1 week off. Then 2 weeks after 2 years, and then 3 weeks after.... 10 WEEKS! They don't encourage a work from home culture or even if you finish early you can leave early. They want everyone (office) from at least 8-5, 5 days a week. No matter what! However depending on manager it can be nice. Dress code, all guys have to wear white button ups with slacks. Everyone gets cubicles for the most part..
