A wonderful place to work.
IS Scanning Rep (Former Employee), Keene, NH –
I really enjoyed working at C&S Wholesale Grocers. I gained a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience with Microsoft Office Suite during my time there. The only reason I left was due to the fact that this position was a temp only position.

warehouse supervisor
Warehouse Supervisor (Former Employee), Newburgh, NY –
Pros: 4 day work week
Cons: long hours, no recognition, low annual raises
Being a supervisor for C@S takes alot of dedication and hard work along with long hours. the associats are all hard working and very divercified people but for the most part are great to work with. The only problem is upper managment fails to reward or recognize thair front line supervisors for thair hard work and dedication to the company. Thay also – more...  fail to listen or pay attention to them when oporational problems occure and take all matters into thair own hands. ( micr manage )Poor choice for them, thiar is also no team building for the supervisors who for the most part are left to learn on thair own. – less

Doesn't have great pay or benefits
Scanner, Loader, Unloader (Current Employee), Blandon, PA –
The pay is low for a warehouse position and the benefits aren't worth much. You also have to deal with weather as is extremely hot in the summer and extremely cold in the winter.

Great team- long weeks
EHS Supervisor (Current Employee), WIndsor Locks, CT –
Pros: frequent celebrations, free food, oppertunity for development
Cons: long hours, no hard work or great result incentives
I have been working for C&S for a year and half. I have not come across a challenge that I cant handle, however the days and nights are long and schedules are very difficult regardless of what days or shifts you work. Things change quickly or very slowly. Every day is different and there are different levels in the organization but all employees from – more...  all levels work interchangeably. There are lots of fun challenges and lots of very difficult ones- and very little time for your self or family. – less

Not worth it
EHS Supervisor (Former Employee) –
Pros: compensation
Cons: hours management no support advancement
If you're looking for a company to grow with and to enjoy what you do, this is not the place. There is a tremendous disconnect between management and the employees here, and the company believes it is above the law. You will be presented with a great looking opportunity and compensation package upon being hired, but then those opportunities will disappear, – more...  and you will have no time to enjoy the compensation away from work. – less
