Sysco reviews

Since the transformation to the new software system did not gone as planned, their recent business decisions reek of desperation; they seem to jump on the first bandwagon that promises any kind of return without considering the possible consequences or if it will even work (e.g., outsourcing IT to a non-English speaking company; moving all accounting functions to Texas to be handled by new-to-Sysco employees that do not have even a basic understanding of how Sysco works). Both of these have taken away from the bottom line rather than added to it, but corporate is too proud to admit their mistakes and we all must live with the results. Management is secretive and, if you are told of something, you can almost guarantee that the exact opposite will happen. The overall work environment today leaves so much to be desired; shortcuts are often taken at others' expense. The unspoken motto seems to have become "as long as it's not on my desk and I can't be blamed for it, I'm fine with it" (it used to be "what is the right thing to do"). If one has a conscious at all, they will have a VERY hard time working here.

Discontinued traditional pension plan, now has a 401K based retirement plan. Downgraded health benefits, work most holidays, Activity Based Compensation pay program for delivery associates instead of a track-able steady hourly rate. Drivecam in the trucks. Zero tolerance policy on cell phone use when operating company vehicles, even if you have a hands-free device. Overall poor attitude towards its employees. Management sometimes misleads with answers on issues instead of being honest and upfront.
