KEG 1 Missouri, LLC

My experience with this company was disappointing due to significant issues in leadership and workplace culture. Work-life balance was virtually nonexistent, and management showed little interest in supporting employee growth or success. Efforts to learn new skills or ask questions were often met with resistance or outright discouragement, creating a stagnant and demoralizing environment.
Recognition for hard work was rare, while negative feedback was a constant focus. One manager even suggested I consider a different career, which speaks volumes about the lack of encouragement and professional development offered.
The company’s reputation remains impacted by past acquisitions, and the leadership team has done little to address these lingering issues. Overall, it felt like the organization prioritized maintaining the status quo over fostering a positive, growth-oriented workplace.

I don’t understand how people in sales have worked there longer than a month. Small format has no leadership, training is short and all over the place. SF managers just do what they have to for the company for the paycheck. No one has your back with the upper management that is clearly out of touch with work in the field. Multiple people have proof of “write ups” being inaccurate. I wasn’t there for long but I can definitely see they are trying to get rid of the Veteran people from before the new company. Easy to fire people and hire new ones at a lesser rate. You have to work 10+ hour days just to get the job done but good luck since there’s meetings every other day at 3p. Small format makes more than half of all volume and revenue for the company but they pay large format more for less work. I’ve seen them sitting in their cars in parking lots. This job was a joke. I’m going back to AB.

Only 2 weeks vacation and 3 holidays off a year. Meetings are thrown at you on a whim. Upper management does not compensate you fairly for time given to the company. No pay increases ever. Sales positions never given days off. Would rather see you leave than pay you for an actual good job done. Have been told to sign offer letters or leave. Does not answer pay questions, incentives are not paid out properly. Never feel valued as an employee who has given years to excelling the company in multiple departments. Upper management makes 80% of the money while they take advantage of sales employees. 


Started good and over time it was disappointing. There were minimal growth opportunities, and management showed little interest in employee development. Discrimination was evident & loud, creating a toxic atmosphere where certain groups were favored. Feedback was predominantly negative, with no recognition for hard work. The rigid policies on time off contributed to burnout. Overall, this workplace lacks support and inclusivity, making it difficult for employees to thrive. I would advise potential candidates to consider other options.

Working at KEG 1 Missouri is an absolute blast! It provides an exciting industry that is pandemic-proof and recession-resilient, endless opportunities to learn and grow, and you will work alongside amazing people - those are just a few things that make KEG 1 the best place I have ever worked. The leadership team cares about their employees and the entire organization is dedicated to making KEG 1 Missouri the best place you will ever work.

Since Keg 1 bought summit it feels like we’ve lost more money than we ever thought with summit. Went from making $30/hr to $22 since the change. Meetings all the time, same managers making more while we make less. In house brand reps are always in the office and never really helping. Sales exec seems out of touch with what it’s actually like in the field. Start by 7/8 and still not getting home until 6 or after. I’m driving over 200 miles a day it’s just wild. 

I’ve been here 26 years, and I was 26 years old when I started! Since I’ve been here so long, I like sharing knowledge with new people. The beverage industry is a pretty safe industry, and I find it quite interesting, the difference between beers, sodas, cocktails, and spirits — all the rules and specifications. And I have a good work/life balance; I get to show up at work and show up for my kids.

Working here has been awesome!  I have never seen an organization that promotes from within like they do here at KEG 1 MO. Also, the beer industry is really cool and fun to be a part of and beer is always in demand so I feel very comfortable knowing that my job is secure. I worked hard and sometimes there are some long days but it is very satisfying. 

In my 10 years at KEG 1 MO, I've worked in several roles, from the front desk, to pricing, to my current role as Executive Assistant to the leadership team. I love this industry because it's always changing, and people are always coming up with new things. My favorite part of my role is planning and coordinating fun events for our employees! When the hard work is done, we never miss an opportunity to gather together and just connect as people.

I am glad to be a part of the new company and the vibrant company culture and sense of camaraderie among colleagues continue to thrive, providing a supportive environment for collaboration and growth.

Although it's still early days under the new ownership, there are already noticeable changes taking place. KEG 1 seems committed to fostering innovation and investing in employee development.
