      "Sysco was once a great place to work but bullies have moved in to the c-suite. They have high expectations and want to impact significant change but refuse to provide the resources necessary to support it. They “say” many of the right words, but fail to act. It’s almost as if they’ve come in to Sysco with a short term agenda to satisfy their personal goals and will leave it in shambles when they exit to the next rung in their career ladder. "

      "It is a great time to be part of the Sysco organization! Sysco, like many companies, is on a journey toward being a more diverse and inclusive workplace. The best part of Sysco's is that it is not just words, but more importantly you can see the ACTION taking place. The CEO and executive leadership team is setting a great example and still expects everyone to be part of the change. I've been fortunate to have had multiple strong women leaders in my time with Sysco that each really saw something in me and led to 5 different positions in less than 8 years. #Blessed #Proud #Sysco"

      "I've been able to work at a face pace with determination and persistence for the last 4 years but I don't feel like I'm thriving or moving up. I like what I am learning along the way and I am getting critical exposure to new technologies at an enterprise level. I get paid very well to make sure high quality work is done well and provides business value . The downside is that there isn't clear training or support. The work life balance is very little and they often pressure people to not take vacations but do not mind if employees work odd or over time hours. It often is even expected to work during vacations and not be compensated for the extra hours worked. There is very little open discussion and get use to being talked over or "tested" constantly during technical meetings unless you hold a Master's degree or a senior post most teams often over look female contributions or tenured work experiences. I don't rock the boat so I know how to fit in and keep working . Again , I get paid very well to make sure high quality work is done well. This work environment is not for everyone takes a stiff upper lip at times. There is hope though, if Sysco increases employee diversity and experiences I think they would open up. The Sysco work culture would become more open to hear more voices and a lot more innovation would happen. This would make Sysco a happier place to work."

      "Working at Sysco is like working at a corporation from the late 90's. People are very old-school, not just in terms of work-life balance, but even as they approach working innovatively. Most processes are stale and there are layoffs often. Overall, it's a safe environment to work in but there are definitely lots of good old boys clubs. "
