Pros

Sysco provides constant training and is always developing new tools to keep the sales force one step ahead of the competition. I feel self employed with all of the supports of a fortune 100 company.

Cons

There is a yearly change of bonus structure that always amounts in a decrease in pay for the sales force. The newest bonus program is impossible to maintain for the entire year if you have a seasonal territory. 90% of our territories are seasonal in Colorado.

Pros

Sysco provides you the opportunity to market some great food products to any independently owned operator in your territory. You can take some samples home to get feedback from your friends or family.

Cons

Working six days a week in the gross profit game is a nightmare. The largest foodservice company in North America still thinks you can get the job done with a yellow legal pad and a pager. My company issued laptop was one of the perks. It was AWESOME back in '95. Paying all my own expenses such as gas, vehicle maintenance, cell phone bill, was something I would have thought a big company would pick up. It seemed upper management was just trying to earn their 'executive vp' of whatever and then move to Houston. Mid level management just liked to see you struggle while they play golf and talk about how they used to do it back in the day.
