Pros

Good co- workers but because of all the changes they are emotionally disengaged with their jobs.

Cons

Talented employees are leaving on a regular basis. Sought after candidates are not interested, because Veritiv is not a stable company. Management is incompetent and can’t fix the problems. The company has lost over a billion dollars in sales since the integration. Managements way to fix the problem is to create fictitious price increases, set unrealistic goals for Sales Reps so they can terminate them. Micromanage people to death because they have no trust in there employees so they can justify their own jobs.

Veritiv Response

Thanks for your review and service. We certainly are disappointed that you were dissatisfied with your tenure at Veritiv. The reason we mention the integration and the strategy because that is THE reality of Veritiv. When combining two legacy companies, you have to expect many levels of consolidation to create new efficiencies. The work can be long and arduous and create fatigue, but it is creating a stronger foundation for this young and growing company. While sales have fluctuated in the past, the truth is that sales have been growing since 4Q 2017, although we certainly want them to grow even more. Unfortunately for the industry, price increases have not been a story of fiction as you wrote but a real-life factor in packaging, facility solutions and print. The Veritiv Journey is moving into a new phase of its strategy to optimize our processes to make working with and for this company a much better experience. For many, this is an exciting time to be at Veritiv.

Pros

They are lenient when it comes to time of our working from home.

Cons

You do not get hired for full time or promoted based on qualifications. They choose who to hire based on who you know and who you are friendly with.
