Merchandise discounts available to employees.

Pros

It has been around a long time and is somewhat stable Decent benefits

Cons

The changes coming are not going to be pleasant for some of the sales force and their families Creativity in sales has been taken out of the equation leaving basically a drone sales force Cost-cutting and pencil pushing has replaced sound sales strategies One set of rules for senior & middle management, another for sales force Increased micromanagement, paperwork and rules takes away from increasing daily sales and properly servicing customers Inability to take a proper deserved vacation

Pros

Sysco is a good place to work. The company offer a decent benefits package; however, with the current enrollment period for 2011, the employees will bear all of the financial burden of the health insurance cost increase.

Cons

Sysco seems to be more worried about pleasing investors than employees. Sysco pays salaries that are below market.
