Thread regarding US Foods layoffs

My bottom 5 are securety, safety, and digiIT tech. I am not in sales or marketing so I don't have a fu--ing clue on why some of y'all are down on marketing but if our sales are down, fu-k yes marketing needs to get added to the dumpster fire list that the other 3.

Next time, rank them by the worst first. You added who the worst was on your list so I understand it but I was confused at first. Your list is 100 percent correct. The bottom two need to fire their leaders now and the Digi-tech leaders should be told they have 6 months to get their sh-t together or they should get cut. I do not know any thing about ethics complience but if what I read here is true, that "dum--ss" as they call him here, should also be sent packing. I mean, the CEO has to do his job and remind us to report sh-t? Where the fu-k is he?

My bottom five

1. Compliance=ethics
2. Digitech- IT
3. IT cyber security
4. Marketing
5. The poorest by a mile- Security

Almost making the list- Safety

A+ for all the mechanics at my distribution center. And the last report card was what I would score.

Hey , what about us mechanics. Nothing moves without us. How’s bout a grade for us?

@dr3 Yours is the closest to my thoughts. Identical actually.

You are an optimistic song of a b I t c h .the last report card was totally accurate. Yours is too optimistic of non performers and poor leaders and gives them excuses and too much time to do what we all know needs to be done.

I have been here a quarter of a century and papa Smurf won’t do sh-t. Off he does, I will come on here and say I was wrong and get behind them but I k ow he won’t do sh-t.

@dr3 that’s a pretty good eval. I would give the CHRO some more time to see what he is going to do about this bad apple. I think I read he just took over security so give him a chance. I have been here 15 years and know him and he will take care of business for us. He is just trying to give him enough rope to hang himself. He ain’t stupid and sees what we all see. IT deserves better. Maybe they don’t get the money they need to buy better sh-t. Drivers are an A+ too. They make our customers happy.

Here is my report card.

Marketing- - If there was anything lower that an F, I would use it. She is the worst!
Digi-IT technology- - Cyber is an F and Technology is a D.
HR- - C MINUS to D plus- I would have said a B but their handling of the hires and violations of protocols at the top and ordering people to "cheat" is unforgivable and I am the one that knows one of the two HR ladies who is sick about doing that.
Security- - The worst F. They can't do the job right and the lead is crooked and unethical.
Safety- - The new VP has her hands full here. They were an F but now I give them a B for caring enough to hire a new leader to try to make us safer. Safety is terrible here so she has her hands full.
Business and Crisis Continuity- - A+ Another good hire. They are Johnny on the spot and helpful and effective.
Ethics and Comply in-- D -They have a reporting process but they aren't effective when they get the message.
Operations- - B - They work really hard and try to always take care of our customers and associates. After talking to friends in different regions, the west is the best and the Southeast is the worst by far. Both are cuz their leaders.
Chefs- - A
Payroll- B
Drivers- B - Most are good but my friends say they are robbing us blind and it became worse at the end of this year.
Work place Violence - - Absolute joke. Their answer to bad was to make it worse. They spend on a new training and really sc--w up when bad thigs happen. Their plan is run hide fight. My old company had security guys that were better than that,
Travel-- D+. The tool to book my flights is good but everything else is terrible.
Real Estate- - A
Procurement-- Would have been an A but the tech problems that are constant lowers it to a C-
Legal-- Its sh-t because they let all of the recent problems go without taking steps to correct it.
Sales-- Would be better if they had better marketing. Not their fault but their B brings them down to a C
Execs-- DF- C, would be an A+ if he had put the hammer down on those who cheated and made changes to department leads that he knows are unethical and shares too much classified inner workings with too many, HR and IT - F- should be released and replaced with outsiders. The rest are Cs.

That list is good except you should rank them by worst down. Security is the worst but marketing su-ks a-s too. We have been waiting for the day Mr F announces a new direction and helps us succeed in sales and starts with firing her a-s!

Bottom 5 on our report card

1. HR- They cheated and bent the rules to get two associates in
2. Safety- We don't even have one in our DC
3. Digi-wreck - su-ks ba--s. Everything goes down too often and we were penetrated.
4. Marketing is pathetic.
5. Security - The worst by far

marketing blows but our security is the worst.

So did they fire the marketing bi--h after the fu---d up results? That would be the right thing to do. They need to make the decisions based on results. The bi--h is clueless! This is not an economy thing when other companies like us are generating better results. This is a marketing and sales failure so that egotistical and not respected bi--h must go so we can all win again. Fire her!

@55h Those two and security are F- . They might as well be expulsions cuz they are of no use to any of us right now.

FU-K NO! Safety and Marketing are Fs too.

You nailed it specially on Security and IT. Marketing is a "big fat F". She really is terrible and not respected at all. Lame ideas. If you want to increase sales, make the change.

The report card is the truth over all.

I am THE top seller and it is going to stun many of my org leaders but I am putting my resume out and plan to leave. I have been getting closer to the bible daily and can no longer help people who are this evil. I can't support these unethical pricks any more.

I am feeling just like you. That is exactly how I feel. I have 5 more years before I retire but they will be "scary" years. As a woman, a safe place to work is what I hope.

I don't give a damn about anything but my safety. The HRs and ITs frankly do not matter. When I read on these posts that our own are carrying g-ns in the workplace that scares me deeply. I mean it really scares me. When I see our security company here sleeping and I call corporate security and the manager tells me he doesn't manage security that my market bosses do? That scares me. What do our managers know about security. They said they have never been trained or told what to do. My VP said he has talked to many of his "peers" in other states and most of them admit that their security is bad. When I read about Montgumery, I gasped and shed a brief tear. But when reading that their security is still bad there, that is inexcusable. If it can't be done correctly after something like that happens, do we really not have the answers? That place should be the shinning example of what all of our locations should be.

Look, our kids- parents- and other relatives send us to work and would like to see us come back safely. Please please please just do something to make us safer. Please!

Here is my report card. We are eye to eye on everything but I would give Ops a B because I do it out west and our team is da bo-b. Safety is a C. Violence prevention is a f. Marketing and IT are both F and executives get a B- except for two or three that su-k di-k. The rest are right.

I'm a customer and I am paying attention. Our driver told us about this and I am looking to change to Sysco or Spartan. We are only one customer but the details on this site and your terrible treatment has me pricing other companies. I am trying to see if either hire our US Foods driver. We love him. Shame on all of you in a position to listen and aid them and won't!

They don't but my customers do. You didn't check out the posts that show our customers are reading these. I spoke to one of mine yesterday after she drooped a voice mail on me to call her and was peppered with questions about what she read here. She put me on hold and tied in her Director of Purchasing to the call. Our security veep & if there was mold on the food & the hacker were most of what they hit me with. It isn't the first time I was asked about this site from some customers but the hacker and mold questions were new. They didn't say it but I could tell their delivery person must have told them because they slipped up and said that and then took it back. I was like, what the fu-k do I say? I threw them a bone and admitted to our distrust of our security veep because it is true. I did tell them all was good on the other sh-t. I hope I am right because I just guessed and if it isn't true they won't ever believe any thing I say any more. Give us those bullet points from our managers on what to say when we are asked wtf is going on. We get them after storms and outages so what's up now? Leaving us without answers is not smart. It makes them and us think there is some kind of cover up.

Good read and and I second the original post on everything. What is fu---d up is on the board. But all of you are fu--ing on dr-gs if you think anyone gives a fu-k about us. They just take their cash and run.

Marketing is a F grade.

Ha. I have to give you the same response as a previous poster for that one. YEAH LAWD! I had never used that but I like it and is fitting.

Super good report card. I would add that security is not bad only because the Kernel and his past. It is what he has done, and not done while being here. He has told peeps here that they still have security contractors at the CEO's house and that the CEO is now looking to dump more money into the home for security tech. What's so bad about that? Why talk about that sh-t? Isn't it best that the less we know about that, the safer he is? What a d-mb fu-k! He talks too fu--ing much. Besides, how is he going to do that when they can't make a facility that had a shooting safe? I hear from one of our VPs helping there that security is so bad that guards are asleep and a metal detector was set up in a place but that it isn't used correctly and everything is open everywhere else so it is a waste of money and those that work there know it. He said he and others has to tell security what to do. I hope our CEO gets a second opinion on the fu--ing bullsh-t he is hearing from the Kernel. Then add what I read and heard about the Vegas FF security and I have to scratch my head. This fu---r now manages violence in the work place? Are you sh-----g me? He says he inherited a mess from a guy that had no business managing it but what the fu-k has the Kernel keystone cops done with it? JFrom what I am hearing about Montgomery and now Cincinatii, not a fu--ing thing. And the big fu--ing mouth! That big a-s mouth. I don't know about you but telling employees that the big boss man flies private jets when he "ain't that big of a target" and likes to spend thousands of dollars at fancy dinners before and after every every day at the LT meetings instead of giving his security team the money he needs and has asked for and what do you get. A fu--ing F-. The more I read and hear, the more I get why he isn't trusted for sh-t. The other thing I have to say about the report card is safety is hit or miss. We are only as good as the VPO you work makes it. Ours is really good and why they ask him to help others. All of the As deserve that sh-t from what I see.

@1hc Yes lawd!

@1ge You really need to read the different sections and articles posted on these threads about security before you say anything about them. Be prepared to be surprised at our stupidity for bringing on such characters . We shoot our own selves in the foot but I am more surprised by how long they take to do something about their bad mistakes. They need to bad fish they caught off the pole and drop him back in the ocean. They will be in a better spot and gain our trust again.

Welcome on this board to the poster before me. It is great to see your enthusiasm. We all love US Foods and just want to see them get better at what we su-k at. I would give safety a C. There are some places we don't have walkways that are painted and some drive too fast and we have some near misses but we do stretching exercises and talk about how to stay safe in groups before we work which is . So I would bump them on up to a C. I agree with everything else.

Fist time poster!!!!!!! Yay for me. I think you all forgot Ethics who gets a big fat F. I called in a dilenma a year or so ago and they did nothing about it. I still see it happen here at my job and it is scary. I mean, do they even care? Maintnance is bad too cause things always break down and yes, security at our distribution center is a guard who doesn't do anything. I mean nothing but eat and flirt with women. I was offended and weirded out by one of them last week and called a security man who I think was named Ryan. He said he would tell one of his managers to look into it but to not expect much because he doesn't have the "staff and resources" to do things right and that people want everything done now but won't give him what they need to do it He said he is trying to "address that". He said he has a new boss and he was chipping away at them to give him what he needs or he will walk. He said they think they know security but "don't know sh-t, pardon my French". They did give him some help but he said it was the wrong type of help and not what he asked for. He said he will chip away at them more and eventually get what he needs and told me to just "sit tight". I actually liked him telling it like it is with me but it is still not comforting. So maybe the security bad grades are his bosses and not the security group. I have not read all of the posts yet so maybe I will learn more. Any how, it is great to join these chats and have a voice and ears with my fellow employees. Thank you US Foods employees and layoffs.com. This site gives us power and hope for the better. Peace everyone!

IT is not an F. The D or D- was right. They have some field techs that are good partners.

Those areas scored an A are all right. I have worked with all of them all and they are amazing. I would give travel an A too except their expense process is a nightmare. It is way too time consuming. So Travel gets a C

I spoke to my friend has been on the IT team for years. There was a breech but it didn't get into our information. It didn't get any information. He said it messed up some aps and things our customers use. He said they "got in" and something about passwords that I didn't understand but that our "data" is safe. He's on all of the calls so I believe him. He said something that our inferstructure is sh-t and that their ELT boss won't spend money wisely to "upgrade or replace" it. He said they are worried about getting hacked again and getting rid or patching things to stop it. I am not sure I understand all that but it was a long way to say that they did not take our information.

He did say he is looking for another job because he is sick of dealing with this all of the time and he does not like their VPs and lack of good leaders from the top down. So yes, F for them

The Fs are all correct. I would also drop IT and Work place violence's grades to an F. Neither one of them work well and I saw we had a breach and no one told us and now many of us are wondering if our private information is out there on the web. And the Cincinnati and Montgumory problems being swept under rugs is a shame. Both are inexcusable.

@sr 100 percent agree except the kid should not have been working so close to him, if he was. I would give him an F for having that security loser here. I call him 7-11 because the only good thing bout the security fu-k is his mouth is open 24 hours a day like a 7-11 store. We get some good sh-t on what's going on. Which reminds me. Did they really hack us like he said? That would be some serious sh-t if they did. My personal information best not be out there!!!

How about the CEO? I don’t blame him on hiring his son. We all want what’s best for our children. I admire him for caring about him. It’s normal. He has done some good here too. But not getting involved and firing the security guy with the bad background, lack of real experience, and no trust from any of us drops his grade. He also allowed my friend to be told to do unethical stuff to bring on the son and the kernel. They were asking the kernal what to do with the son before he even became an employee. In my mind he went from an A- to a C-

@mm Breach means a hacker attacked our network, computer apps, device and passed right through our security protection. This is a big deal cuz they can shut things down or take data. It all depends what they were able to do. This would be a scary thing and another blow to the IT team. So the bad report card score would be justified.

That would explain what we have experienced in sales. They made it sound like maintenance or an update to us but it is much worse. So why lie? Our customers would be pi---d if we sh-t the bed and didn't tell them.

Thanks for the heads up Kernal Sanders!

Great report card. II like it as is. I do think that IT has some good techs in the field to help us like the one we have in southern Cal He helps us when we have laptop's that malfunction but the infrastructure is sh-t. I am not sure what being breached means but it doesn't sound good.

Call me a fu--ing id--t but I think "Papa Smurf" is now in a position to right the wrong that most, if not all of us see. He is an HR expert and is not in control of fixing the sh-t decision legal made hiring that incapable fu-k in Security. I might be optimistic but I think he will. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that and he will have the gonads to make the change. If he doesn't, than he proves some of you to be right. His Region HR leader for us is very good so I hope B was not asked to do unethical sh-t to hire the security guy. She is all about ethics and it may force her to quit and we don't want to lose her.

When were they planning to tell us who may get calls from my customers?
