Gordon or Sysco?

@Mike2633 works for GFS.

 

Gordon >> sysco

 

Its all the same bs more or less. I think it's more about terminal locations than company. For example sysco (or insert any food service company including gordon) pay and equipment can be great at one location and so so at another

 

Is there a US Foods down in your area?
By no means a perfect company but I did work for them aways back; I always thought they were a pretty decent outfit. Good pay and bennies.
If there is a Reinhart foodservice in your area, avoid them like the Black Death.

 

What sucks so bad about Reinhart?

 

I work for GFS up here in New England, the pay and benefits are the highest around. when they post a job it doesn't talk about all the extra benefits you get and bonuses for just doing your job. Hard work pays off, especially at GFS. I have even traveled around the country helping other Dc's when they are in need of drivers. It's a pretty good company to work for.
that being said i have also worked at Sysco. I did not like the way the Sysco house up here operated and treated their drivers. To me they were a warehouse focused company that treated their drivers poorly.

 

Both are tough companies to work for.
Both will look to fire you for small reasons.

If you are a good driver with a clean record try doing something else local: transporting equipment or cars.

I avoid bigger companies altogether.
