United Natural Foods Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I was absorbed following 2 mergers in 12 months and had no defined job requirements. Instructed to 'keep doing what I am doing for 2 years and then summarily dismissed in 3rd year for suddenly failing to meet standards that were never clearly outlined. Required to learn multiple new systems and data storage with little or no help. The company itself seems to be forward-thinking but is mired in decade-old IT technologies."

"UNFI has great growth potential. The money was good. I would have liked to have seen some exposure to the IT departments Bigger Plan. Much of it was secretive. My view is that if you have to hide it, its wrong. If you want employees to be fully engaged, one needs to make them feel that they are part of the plan. My over all thoughts of UNFI were positive, as I was initially able to use my skills without boundaries to meet objectives. Management changes are often good, but should not be self serving. They should be for the benefit of the companys goals and assist on employee growth. These two together as a balance, will drive strength and pride in meeting objectives."
