If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at Sysco?
Stop the corporate greed. Stop using employees as sacrificial lambs by forcing them to program artificial intelligence platforms that will ultimately replace them. Too many layers and layers of hidden equities that steal from commissions and fair compensations. When your shareholders become more important than your employees, big problems lie ahead.
