Pros

Fair wage is the only thing I think was a pro.

Cons

Massive micro-mange. I felt like I was a toddler at a daycare, instead of a job.

Pros

Good base for grandfathered reps, new reps paid less, 401K, company car, like the warehouse I work out of, prior to 2016 GREAT job.

Cons

New Management is pushing customers out and giving them to the competition due to the arrogance that they think Univar is. They want the perfect customer that doesn't exist and as an account manager you have NO control. A monkey could do our job at this point. An account managers role currently is to filter all the complaints and explain price increases and freight increases. Have to get approval to try and run your territory like a true business manager. It is very frustrating and mind blowing at this point. Not recommended!

Pros

Do not believe any review that is ranked above 1 star. It is likely made up by someone in Univar HR.

Cons

Save yourself. Do not accept a job at Univar. It is an absolutely disorganized mess. They are on the brink of financial disaster and the IT systems are also a disaster. Look at the stock price! Back stabbing, egos, temper tantrums, high turnover, turf protection, etc. Rampant at Univar. Most of the quality people that worked there are gone and immensely more happy. If you do interview ask them about the bonus. If they say you're going to get one they are lying. Ask about the IT systems. Ask how they are functioning and if any implementations failed. Ask about the turnover. Ask them though questions and see what they say.
