    Which one would you work for and why? US Foods in my area is union and they deliver to all the little mom and pop restaurants. McLane, in my area, deliver mostly to gas stations. I like coming home every day for US Foods, I heard new guys will be on the "extra board" for McLane and require to do over-night runs. Thanks in advance!

    One of my friends worked for McLane's in our area. They run teams, out one day, return the next. I don't think US Foods runs teams (?)

    There are a few teams in the system. Mclane food service is mostly solo. They don't force you to run team.

    U.S. Foods is a good place to work; at least up in the New England area anyways. I worked there for a bit and I rather liked it, although both the hours and the actual work were difficult. Also, non union up here; Mclane as well.
    At least the pay was decent; making from between $1300.00 to $1700.00 a week for 60-70 hours.
