It’s okay

Truck Driver (Former Employee) - Pittsburgh, PA - May 20, 2022

You have a lot of control over everything except pay and how quick you’re getting there. Other than that it was easy to take up any problems or request off/parental leave

Pros

Pay retirement benefits etc

Cons

No food card

Old equipment, dirty crowded.

Company openly does not care about its employees

Delivery Driver (Former Employee) - Jessup, MD - May 18, 2022

I have been with Sysco for almost 4yrs, and I have seen everything within this company. Drivers are underpaid and undervalued. Company sets a division between warehouse employees and drivers. Routing does not make sense as well as decision making by top management. And equipements are poorly maintained, lots of truck breakdown.

Good place to make some money!

Class A CDL Driver (Former Employee) - Olathe, KS - May 18, 2022

It's not an easy job, but if you do it without complaining you'll get along fine. The pay is there, benefits are there, and equipment is there. Most negative reviews are from disgruntled employees. Not the ones that come in, get their route, keep their mouth shut and do the job. It's simple. Work. Get paid.

Pros

Free breakfast. A lot of "swag". Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Work through lunch

Pay was ok

Order Selector (Former Employee) - Saint Charles, MO - May 18, 2022

Pay was good they barely train and you wont have a outside life so kiss your kids and relationship goodbye. And the managers(MICHA) were rude they had favorites, and if you wasnt a favorite you was either over worked you or kept you in the freezer.

High production standards and pressure from management

Order Selector (Current Employee) - San Diego, CA - May 18, 2022

Not a great place to work. There is a very high turnover rate. I’ve seen hundreds of employees come and go over the course of 10 years, due to the fact that you work nights and they break you with huge workloads. This job isn’t for everyone. You must be in shape and ready to get after it every night. Pay isn’t great for the work you do. Many employees have a second job. Management only cares about numbers, your well being does not matter. At one point it was a good company but it has drastically gone down hill. If your young, strong and have no personal life then this job is for you.

Excellent management team! Dedicated team of professionals helping to feed the world

Safety Manger (Former Employee) - South Redistribution Center - May 18, 2022

As a manager you normally see different things everyday at a warehouse environment. Here at Sysco there is consistency in operations, maintenance and safety. The managers and directors are involved in the daily work and are excellent sources of information for employees. I have enjoyed the 3 years here and would recommend this facility for people who are career minded and ready to work.

Pros

Excellent benefits and bonus potentials, promotion opportunities and career advancement

Good company

Credit (Current Employee) - Houston, TX - May 14, 2022

It’s a good company to work for. Many have retired here. I have no complaints for my department’s management or leadership. In my experience, they have been very supportive and appreciative of their employees. My only overall complaint is the compensation. You’ll need to negotiate before accepting your offer or apply internally for advancement opportunities, and there are many opportunities offered.

Pros

Wfh, flexibility

Cons

More workload, not enough compensation

Pay

Picker/Packer (Current Employee) - Philadelphia, PA - May 12, 2022

The pay is okay but they promised a bonus check and I still haven’t received it. Others have gotten theirs and all I have been told is wait another week. For the last two weeks. It’s seems like false advertising to get more people to work for the company. The more and more come in but less people are gettin paid their full amounts. They don’t really care about the employees just the body of the person their compensating. Meaning the employees have no life out side of work. Your body belongs to Sysco and they can do what the see fit.

Pros

Benefits

Cons

Lies about sign on bonus. Mangers joke about firing you everyday

Great company but moving more and more towards eliminating the in person relationship building

Sales Consultant (Former Employee) - Philadelphia, PA - May 11, 2022

Great company. Constantly training employees but work/life balance is challenging. Customers want you to be available 24/7 or they will go elsewhere. You can never go home and put it away.

No no no

CDL A Delivery Truck Driver (Former Employee) - West Palm Beach, FL - May 9, 2022

Ruff working environment management will try and force you to do things that are not safe at times like a ramp and if you say your not working in unsafe environment they call it refusing to work so if you fold under the pressure of needing a job and you go out with the load and get hurt you are on your own they don’t care believe me. 10 years these people claim safety safety when it’s really not that at all terrible management company could have been great but there mind set is not to make a better working environment for drivers

Get ready to be abused by management

Delivery Driver (Former Employee) - Wilsonville, OR - May 8, 2022

At first I was excited to work for Sysco, I had related job experience so I had a fairly accurate idea of what the job would be like.The issues crept up slowly at first, and at first I was willing to overlook things. But as time went on it quickly became apparent that issues weren’t taken seriously and concerns were hushed away by management saying things like “That’s just how it is sometimes.”I drove truck for the company and delivered product to customers. The trucks were, without fail, loaded poorly every single shift. It was a constant battle with the time they allotted for each delivery, to dig unfamiliar cases out of the depths of a pallet. They care little for loading product in such a way that it will be easily accessible to the drivers. Not only that but product was constantly loaded damaged and left to the drivers to clean up and deal with customers upset that product was missing.The tractors were not well taken care of, and issues that I would write up would often take a week or more to be addressed. I wrote up a bad trailer tire and the next day had the same trailer assigned to me, which had not been fixed.Your time won’t be respected.Your safety won’t be respected.Your concerns won’t be heard.Your family time will be nonexistent.There were so many more issues, but the safety issues were the biggest reason for me leaving the company. I would urge anyone reading this to consider not applying for this company.

Tough to say

Delivery Driver (Former Employee) - Nashville, TN - May 7, 2022

The Sysco company as a whole is a good company. But this certain location the management will hold you down if they don't like you won't turn your back on safety.

Pros

To much back stabbing to be any pros

Cons

2 faced management. They can break the rules but you cant.

Great place for fast money not so great long term.

Delivery Driver (Current Employee) - Denver, CO - May 4, 2022

I’ve enjoyed the job for my time being there, you’ll have a lot of great co workers around but the long hours and stressful days can’t make up for the job anymore. Good company just needs help in the office. Hard work but great pay, I’m finally deciding my health is more important than running a ramp.

Pros

Good pay

Cons

Breaks non existent and management
