Pros

PEOPLE...the folks who work in the successful machine known as Sysco are by far the best in the business. The best at just being people friendly and customer driven. Training for any job is there...if you ask for it, or at least it was. The events, shows and such are by far supreme in the food industry. Vendors are amazing at what they do. Sales force is driven.

Cons

You have to ask for training. Seems the further into time the less they are interested in training. So keeping up on any kind of skill set is put to the back burner. Except in Sales. Some of the sales techniques need to be amped up to current times. Find a good mentor in Sales and you'll be fine. As changes come along this company seems to forget it's biggest tool in the industry, and what made it so big to begin with...the people who work, live and breathe Sysco. At one point it was everything anyone could ever want in a company. Seems if you're in the clique your job is safe, if you're not, yet you play by the rules lay off is guaranteed. Too many good folks let go while several of those who have stayed have taken the reputation of this amazing company to the dogs.

Pros

Can manipulate schedule the way that you want it. Immediate boss does a good job of being there for you. Can be good money

Cons

Bad upper management. Most haven't been in sales for at least 15-20 years and have no idea how the market is. Unrealistic expectations.
