Pros
Whoever wrote the comment that panhandling is better and that the executives are unapproachable must not work on the operations team. Our operations leadership is the best I’ve ever worked with in terms of work ethic, responding to employees and caring about people while protecting the business that pays for all our salaries. I have watched plant managers and leaders in our distilleries work selflessly to help everyone during these challenging times. The COVID-19 situation actually shows how they have been able to maintain a safe workplace for us while maintaining jobs when there are 17 million unemployment claims and counting. We are also making hand sanitizer for our communities which has really inspired our teams. Any executive you email will directly email you back. This isn’t the kind of company where the executives are unapproachable so that comment makes zero sense. The CEO emails updates about the business to everyone. It’s like I’ve never seen at any other company with executive responses which is why I’m responding to this person as the comment is so far off base from what reality is. I don’t know what system is so oppressive or set up to avoid lawsuits either so that is a mystery comment as well. If you don’t like it, you have the choice everyday not to work here. I’m sure there are more grateful people in the 17 million unemployed we could have on our team.
Cons
No place to hide at Sazerac. You will work hard but it is rewarding because everything you do is meaningful. Every decision matters.
