Pros

At Sysco you won't be bored. There is a lot to learn and they do a great job educating/continuing your development.

Cons

There is a major issue with work life balance here. I was never able to disconnect from work which is the nature of the food business since customers have needs day and night. Inheriting negative accounts from more tenured sales reps makes it difficult to succeed in the beginning of your career and make a fair salary. There is a lot of work for little pay. All sales reps from my training class quit within a year of working for the company, there is high turnover for new employees.

Sysco Response

While we’re sorry that your position on our team didn’t adequately meet your needs, your feedback helps us as we continue to improve in this area. We wish you the best in your future endeavors!
