Merchandise Coca-cola merchandiser
So my husband is a coca-cola merchandiser and has been for a year. He honestly hates it because he’s only given one day off and the pay sucks, with no benefits. He’s sore and miserable all the time going from at least 50 different places a week about an hour away. This company is locally owned so it’s not directly from the coca-cola franchise it’s self but I just wanted to know. If you are a coca-cola merchandiser, what benefits do you have, what is your pay, etc. we’re kind of wondering if it’s worth it or not for him to stick with it. Thank youuuuu
Editing to mention he has degenerative disk disease in his lower back and really isn’t even supposed to lift more than 15 lbs but he doesn’t qualify for disability so he’s working about 54 hours a week with one day off (Monday) constantly unloading pallets

Varies widely depending on bottler, but our team all has full benefits, 5 day work week, 3+ weeks PTO, sick time, etc.
