Pros

You get a company vehicle and get to work alone.

Cons

Outdated Leadership: The leadership at United Distributors is stuck in the past. They don’t listen to new ideas or modern approaches. Instead, they stick to their old ways, making the company feel stagnant. Brown-Nosing Culture: If you're looking to get ahead, forget about hard work. This place is all about who you know and how much you’re willing to kiss up to management. Brown-nosing is the name of the game if you want any recognition. Gaslighting Employees: Management has a knack for gaslighting employees, making you question your performance or your worth. They twist the narrative and make it seem like you're the problem, even when their policies and leadership are failing. No Growth, No Promotions: Stuck in a dead-end job? Welcome to United Distributors. There are no clear paths for promotion or growth, and open positions are few and far between. It’s a frustrating cycle of staying in the same place with no hope for advancement. Stale Work Environment: The work itself becomes monotonous quickly, and there's no effort to make things engaging or interesting. No innovation, no excitement—just the same old routine day in and day out. No Brain Stimulation: Don't expect to exercise your mind here. Tasks are repetitive, uninspiring, and there's no encouragement for creative problem-solving or innovation. It's a mind-numbing experience. No mental health days, vacation days are how the boss wants you to use them, crappy meetings that waste time.

Pros

Learning about many beverages that come from Atlanta.

Cons

United does not pay well enough , they expect you to stay out get the job done for a small salary sometimes 14/15 hour days. Favorites are a huge part in moving up the ladder , if your friends with the right person you'll have no problem moving up . For those that just get the job done and go home ... You will be just a peasant . Terrible PTO , 15 years you will be able to have 3 years off. Definitely needs to be some big changes to that place . For a place I heard so highly of before I started I was nothing but disappointed

Pros

If they like you or are a favorite of the top / senior management, then you should do well here

Cons

Low starting pay and generally low pay overall for non sales / non management. They used to treat people fairly well until they started streamlining, cost-cutting, technology implementation and departmental restructuring about a year or two ago.uNow this place is a nightmare with glaring problems and stress galore. They don't treat their customers well either.
