US Foods Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Horrible. We no longer get paid on the "little" orders. Even though GP is good, cookbook pricing is a joke. I have never in my life heard of someone adding $5,300 to an order and their commission goes down!! If you don't have it within range of what they want you to sell it for, you're screwed out of 20% of your pay."

"Great company. Continually moving forward."

"US Foods gives you a fair hand shake for the most part. Big Business, so big decisions have to be made. Which sometimes leaves out the small guy. But over all is a decent company to work for.
