Coca-Cola Bottling Co, Gainesville FL

This bottling company is a joke. If you are considering applying for a sales merchandiser, sales merch cover or sales merch relief don’t. Go to Pepsi or 7up or one of the beer companies. You are severely underpaid for all they expect you to do while they make other departments jobs easier such as the delivery drivers, who are supposed to do small stores but instead they have the merchandisers do them, or they warehouse workers, they layer everything even though you don’t always need a full layer of things, especially in small stores. So by doing that they create more work for the merchandisers. And again I say they have added all this extra work onto the merchandisers yet they don’t want to give them sufficient pay raises. Then they want to get onto you for not ordering a lot for small stores yet they want you to fill up small stores with a ton of product even though these stores do not have the room nor do they want a ton of back stock. Or because you didn’t go over an order line by line. After you’ve worked a 12-15 hour shift which of course they don’t care how long you work fixing mistakes other people have made or thoroughly working the stores. This is the real reason why this company can’t keep help, they expect way too much and they underpay their merchandisers. Once people realize how hard the job is, and that they don’t pay sufficiently they quit and go to the competition. You sell the leading brand of soda and energy drinks, maybe you should act like it and start treating your merchandisers better.

Got one soda out of the machine in paddack mall. Was charged $7. Thats robbery.
