Pros

US Foodservice treats their employees fairly. They will work with their employees to make sure they are using their skills appropriately, and will work with them to find ways to do so if they aren't currently. I have seen numerous situations where people have been reassigned, as opposed to terminated, or even where they have created positions to hold on to people that they value as employees. They do a good job promoting diversity in the workplace. Improvement has been made over the years towards a more transparent management structure; i.e. information makes its way down to the workers faster so the rumor mill doesn't hav a chance to get started, which is never a good situation...

Cons

I feel overall, that the company isn't very progressive. I think I work for a very progressive division of the company, but a lot of it is still 'business as usual' mentality. I've tried to address some issues with HR, and the generic response I've gotten is along the lines of, "We are thinking of implementing something like that, but it will be some time." It seems to be a highly fragmented business, with different divisions doing different things, and while I believe they are all doing so with corporates consent, it doesn't seem terribly efficient to my untrained eye.

Pros

401k is good Benefits got more affordable

Cons

The biggest con is what must these big companies fail to focus on. Money. If to ask, even if you document measurable results ,that i spent a long time composing. You are told that other mechanics get the same or around the same pay. Then say no. Going the extra mile everyday, doesn't get you anything . Yes it's pay. We start a little better than market. But don't go up from there. Yes not right. Not we cannot get any overtime to make up for the lack of raise . It forces good mechanics out . Also they focus way to much on irrelevant things like dei etc .it should be the work you do not what you look like.
