Pros

It is a friendly company that you can learn everything about the process. Starting from the purchase of the good, including transport and stock management. You will be responsible from everything, including customer payments and stock controlling. Good for learning.

Cons

It is a popular company so the circulation is fast, wage increasement is weak, wages are low comparing to same level companies but better than mid to low companies.

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!
