Too big, too slow

Pros

There are some very nice people here who love their jobs and the company. Pay wasn't too bad, and there are some other perks. The company acts like they care.

Cons

Meetings. If this place cancelled 50% of their meetings, they wouldn't have to let anyone off, except those whose only job is to run meetings. Nothing gets done without 900000 meetings. Stop already, just do something Slow. This place is so slow. Apart from having the 39348380 meetings just to decide to change the roll of toilet paper, nobody wants to make decisions on their own. And when decisions are made, good lord they are bad. Complex. This place has two different "god complexes". First is that people in positions of authority are for some reason treated like saints or gods. Seriously, it is just odd. The other is the Sysco beleif that they can do no wrong and that every supplier is there just for them. Surprised more of the major suppliers don't leave. Final straw is beating the markets expectations and continuing to lay off large amounts of people while not fundamentally changing how they do business.
