Utz Quality Foods reviews

They have no respect for your personal time. If it's your day off or hours after you finished working for the day, if they call you, you're expected to work. Raise any concern on the matter and all you'll get is a "Sorry, that's the way it is." Since it's a commission based position, working 12 hour days is very common. The paychecks look good, but after working 60 hour weeks, you may find that you're getting paid just over minimum wage for all your work. Some of the clients were nice, however with the larger stores, you'll find that same lack of respect for your personal time where a company will expect you to wait for hours before they allow you to assemble a display. If you ask management for help with a particularly lengthy task, more often than not they'll tell you that you can handle it yourself. If one of your stops doesn't want a display, expect your regional manager to blame you for not trying hard enough.

*Utz likes to buy smaller companies, let go of a lot of those company's back office employees, and then the Utz staff must shoulder the added work with no additional staff or compensation. This has happened after multiple acquisitions. *Very little opportunity for advancement, depending on your department. Utz will not invest in adding more people for some departments that are stretched thin, but they will create new positions in other departments whenever they feel the need. *Merit-based raises do not exist at Utz, at least not in my department. You can be 100 times more productive than the weakest link on the team, but you both get the same percentage increase.
