Pros

Writing this so others will know how they will be fired.

Cons

Sazerac is a company based on a good ole boy structure supported by HR. The managers in louisville know extremely little about how to run a successful business. Managers only purpose is to make a high salary without providing results. When I was working there I noticed turnover was very high. What I found out is when a manager makes a bad business decision and is called out by upper management. They pick a subordinate to take the fall and be fired. I saw it happen to so many employees and it eventually happened to me. There really wasn't anything I could do about being fired except I knew what the meeting was about. So, when I was called, in my manager (bailment) started the throwing me under the bus process. I called him out on his mistakes, what he was doing was wrong, and he was bad manager. He stared crying in the meeting, Actually crying, in the imperial room. The next day he wiped his tears and had HR let me go.

Pros

I really enjoy the brands and the industry as a whole. I take a lot of pride in working hard, solving problems for customers, and closing sales. Sazerac brings a lot to the table too—competitive pricing, a strong product lineup, and every now and then we even get some pretty cool POS to work with.

Cons

Our distributor can’t seem to carry enough of our stuff, so we’re constantly out of stock on anything new or anything people actually want. It’s a mess. Be ready to grind 40 hours a week in accounts, then somehow cram in trainings, reports, posts, pre-planning, organizing POS…basically all the other crap on your “free time.” And don’t forget—you better account for every singe minute of your day. Got a gap between calls because you had to a crap or grab food? Yeah, you might want to log that too, because they’re gonna want to know exactly what you were doing with their time.
