Sysco Corporation Employer Reviews

Well a normal day was me taking orders over the telephone and have to take care of customers for what they were ordering for there companys. my co workers were very good at showing me any new things that i needed to learn.

Poor management, favoritism, little regard for customers or low end employees. Only concern seems to be about efficiency(numbers) & not the safety/ well being of the worker. Inadequate training with regard to operating systems. Unable to approach managers with safety concerns or job related issues. Unreasonable expectations in regard to work performance – more... or ability. Unable to understand I.T. personnel who seem to lack the ability to speak the English language & offer little help/support. Warehouse too small to accommodate pallet jacks. Some aisles too narrow for safe fork lift operation. Cracks in warehouse floor & leaky roof are hazards for pedestrians, pallet jack & fork operators. If you're looking for stable, long term employment with little or no stress, then this is not the place for you! – less

overall good place to work. Benefits are great, co-workers are helpful and supervisors are there to guide and help you if you ask. If your not on top of duties and reports its easy to fall behind. Work is never really over so that can take some adjustments. But over all great place to be if your like to keep on your toes!

IT dept. is a sweat shop and management is unethical, has no vision and blames the employees for everything wrong with the culture or with their own department. If you have integrity, you will not go anywhere career wise.

The motto "Do the right thing" is realy "SAY the right thing". If you want a career path, you need to "Fake it till you make it".

Money could be easily found. In the way , I had an emergency case,
so i requested my boss and he responded well with my worst case situation.

work day was ok, learned to drive forklift,pallet jacks and load truck,management was ok, co-worker was good, the hardest was the lifting,the most enjoyable take too co-workers on brake.

My territory was mainly in Albany, GA., calling on restaurants, schools and nursing homes selling groceries to these customers.
You had to be organized to call on these customers, presentations skills and customer being happy with products and service. Hardest part of job was getting your orders into warehouse on time and the most enjoyable part of – more... the job was the relationships you had with your customers. – less

Worked for 7 years and they definately stopped caring about the sales crew and their quality of life

Sysco was a good company to work for..Management is lacking at this time.

Everyone is professional and helpful at Sysco. People are willing to answer questions and help out in any aspect of your job.

Sysco's culture is seriously messed up. Don't work here unless you like crass jokes, racist and homophobic humor, and screwing people over. Even though this job pays well, it is not rewarding at all. The management is awful, wasteful, inconsiderate, and they absolutely play favorites. Their new software is a 4 billion dollar joke. This company is a – more... sinking ship and it's going down fast. – less

I started as driver and move my way up to supervisor. I learned alot with the company help & I did alot for the company with the knowledge I learned.

It has been and continues to be a very challenging place to work.
The greatest part of my time there has been the relationships created with customers and co-workers.

As a Sysco picker, I would pick daily orders, and after that was done i would manage manifest logs for daily shipping orders for outbound freight, then i had to replenish daily log generated my computer, then clean all of my area at end of day.

Overall, the company was a great company to work at during my college days. Now as i have worked in various departments, management staff is horrible and they will hire whoever they want and do not even look at how much experience you have or how qualified you are. The company does not offer anything to encourage employees positively. They always say – more... they do not have any money. Sysco is a billion dollar company. NO MONEY!!!!! Really!!! – less

Sysco wasn a verygood company to work for I just was in a derpartment that was streamlining to become more profitable.

The company pays well, but doesn't care much about the low people on the company ladder.

Pleanty of food going out. Great co-workers.....loved it when i was there and miss the friends.

A typical day would be to clock in, get your equipment (arm scanner); Log in, get your orders for the day and pick them in timely manner. I learned through sysco that you perform your job duties effeciently if you're determined to do so. Managment was awessome, they kept you up to date weekly on your performance.I don't think personally their was no – more... hard part about the job. What I enjoyed the most were the bonuses you would receive upon completion of performing your job duties of working hard. – less

Fun place to work always new doors opening and constantly learning new things. Unfortunately they have fallen to greed that most coorperations do and downsized many.
