Pros

Fast Paced... Every Changing, Constant battles or problems to solve...Fun if you like food and the people who "do' food...

Cons

Favortisim stands out here... Who you know...not what you know... Pushy DSM's thinking that problems don't exist like they really do... WE BE HIGHER in price...but we are supposed to be better consultants then the rest of the pack... This is a true statement, lots of on going education, but the ECON has changed the minds of many operators to follow the mind set of saving money vs creating a more profitable business... We make money off commissions...Commissions come from building value... Competition is killing the pricing market to say the least... Industry is changing and our customers need to react to the change...

Pros

Training is top notch. Sysco has the best arsenal for food sales. If you want to sell to successful restaurants work at Sysco. If you want to deal with struggling restaurants get a job at Restaurant Depot.

Cons

Virtually no room for advancement or growth as a MA but you can make a 6 figure income as an MA. 1/2 of the Sales Support team goes out of their way to make it as difficult as possible for you to get support or schedule time in the field. Upper Management is always looking for a way to cut your commissions.
