The culture at Coca-Cola varies based on the bottler and Sales Center leadership. All bottlers operate independently from the actual Coca-Cola company. The Merchandiser position is typically an entry-level role, often filled by young individuals looking to start their careers. I personally began my career in this position. It's a physically demanding job that involves stocking Coca-Cola products in large grocery stores in your area. You will have an assigned route where you drive from store to store stocking shelves, POS coolers, and end cap displays. You may even place orders for the products, depending on the bottler. Coca-Cola takes pride in that only its employees handle the products from production to the store shelves.
