Pros

The pay is really good. Job offers flexibility. There are some really nice people here. Great culture.

Cons

I have noticed myself and talking to several people that have been with the company for quite some time that management does not like change. People have really good ideas that could save the company money and cut down on turnover but they are always shot down. Most of the HR staff are too old school and not up to change. They are very nice people but people that don't like change. The onboarding for new hires is awful. This is one of the most important piece when trying to have that great employee experience coming in the door. There is really no onboarding process and procedure in place. I'm not sure if we have a handbook because I was never presented with one. The people on the HR team are not willing to change from old ways to new ways. Things are still being done the old school way. We focus more on serving the industry but put little or no investment in our employees. We need programs to invest in our employees. All we hear is the company is investing billions of dollars in distilleries but no investment in our employees. When we begin to invest in employees, our turnover rate will go down.

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.
