Sysco reviews

- Expensive benefits which aren't worth it. - expect nothing less then 100% because the computer says it's possible. - expected to stay in -20 for 2.5 to 3 hours - 9 - 11 hour shifts

Each Sysco corporation is a its own little business and held accountable to it own costs (including staff compensation). Unless you are "one of the boys" you will not be handed a sales territory (perhaps a handful of very weak accounts). Sysco prices can be beat at any grocery store so its very hard to get new business. If you do open a new account, there is no compensation for your efforts. Only when you book of accounts reach a totally unachievable gross margin amount will you get a sniff of additional compensation. Base salary is $40k +$10k for expenses (taxed) and I have met multiple "newbies" who are still on base after 3years. You are expected to run your book of business through weekends and holidays. Even if you show sales growth versus last year in double digits, you will not be compensated until your overall earnings exceed the "base". This building is starting to implode as the ill will towards the 2 year new compensation restructure runs very deep from new staff to support staff that have been part of the "team" for 5+ years. On the surface the company treats you very well, but it doesn't take long to figure out what is really going on. If you are a career sales rep, stay away. If you are a front of house staff, you will make more in tips. If you are back of house staff and looking to make more than minimum wage, this might be a good option for you. If you are trying to support a family, good luck.
